An industry insider suggested more entries in the Metroid Prime franchise may arrive on the Nintendo Switch. No specifics were provided on whether these additions would also cater to the anticipated Nintendo Switch 2.

The original Metroid Prime launched in 2002 for the Nintendo GameCube and saw a remaster in 2023 for the Switch.

Following its release, Metroid Prime 2: Echoes followed in 2004, and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption graced the Wii in 2007. After the success of Metroid Prime Remastered, fans are keen for a potential remaster of Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, albeit without official confirmation from Nintendo.

Possible Releases for Nintendo Switch

Recent Twitter insights from Nash Weedle hinted that all Metroid Prime titles could be transitioned to the Nintendo Switch in the future. The insider didn’t clarify if these would be simple ports or upgraded remasters. Meanwhile, enthusiasm among fans is buzzing, especially with the December 2025 scheduled arrival of Metroid Prime 4: Beyond. Grassroots desire for remasters remains high.

Let’s keep in mind this news is speculative until Nintendo formally announces anything. Both Metroid Prime 2: Echoes and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption may appear on the Switch without a timeline.
