What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
To sum up, If you have missed the old school Metroid style of exploring for fun and profit, You will most likely love this game and is well worth the price.
The combat is fun and entertaining with ever improving quality of guns (5 total) and uprades for your character, Either Missles, grenades, Foam gun, Hook shot device, or even double and triple jumping and hyperspeed running where you can even go zipping by enemies while on the roof!
Visuals then hold up well enough in terms of texture quality thanks to the remaster.
Another plus for me is full controller support, and this game has very responsive controls.
The voice acting itself is actually surprisingly alright, but every line of dialogue could be ripped straight from your run-of-the-mill action movie and you wouldn't know the difference.
It is easier than other games but enjoyable, and it also has difficulty levels to choose from. 8 out of 10, played on the Steamdeck and ran perfect 60 fps.
