After shipping 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze in 2014 for the Wii U, it would be another ten years before Retro Studios reared its head again with 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Metroid Prime Remastered.

Retro Was Also Reportedly Working On Metroid Prime 2 And 3 Remasters

It's been rumoured for years now that Retro was developing remasters for Metroid Prime 2 a🦋nd 3, aiming to bring the entire quadrilogy to Nintendo Switch (and now Switch 2).

Allegedly, after the music RPG was cancelled, Retro planned to remaster the entire Metroid Prime trilogy to help the studio "develop the production pipeline to be able to outsource for assistance in the future".
