Nintendo Metroid Prime 4: Beyond

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond puts the player experience at the forefront and relies on a proven mix of exploration, combat, and the continuous expansion of one's abilities. Throughout the adventure, players take on the role of Samus Aran, equipped with her suit and a variety of upgradeable functions. The game world consists of vast interconnected areas that offer different themes and challenges. Each environment is designed to encourage exploration and gradually opens up new access points through new abilities. A hallmark of the series is the so-called "Metroidvania" principle, where progress is tied to unlocking equipment and weapons. This makes backtracking interesting, allowing familiar locations to be re-explored with new capabilities. In combat, precision and strategy are paramount. Different enemies require the use of specific types of weapons or strategies, while boss battles demand special attention and quick reflexes. By skillfully switching between various beams, missiles, or melee abilities, players can adapt their approach flexibly.
