  1. Zelda

    Blows away all expectations. Felt like playing an advanced version of super metroid or Metroid fusion. 10 out 10.

  2. JuanG

    It’s awesome!!¡!!!!!!¡¡!¡¡¡!!!!¡¡¡¡!!!!!¡¡¡¡!!!!!!!!!!!

  3. Daniel

    Yo! The scare factor of fusion and dread is insane. How can a 2D game impose so much anxiety as if I was playing a 3D horror game?

  4. FreidaN

    This game is really good especially when you keep playing.The graphics are really good too.

  5. Arthur

    Theres a reason a genre is based on it. Such a treat.

  6. inhalexhale

    Fun combat, engaging gameplay with steady upgrades, interesting puzzles, unique boss fights that are challenging, endless exploration options, and great level design. Easily a must play on switch.

  7. LoSO

    I played fusion and the continued story is actually pretty good so far. It doesn’t explain much and running from those nonKillable unless you find the power is a bit of a pain but overall great game

  8. Unknown

    Classic game for Metroid fans that have a switch and love action

  9. Soda

    Amazing game with good graphics, fun level design, and beautiful atmosphere.
    A fitting sequel

  10. N8hess

    I wish you could give half stars because this game is marvelous and deserves 4.5, but it has a few tedious moments and sometimes, it is almost too challenging, but I don’t mind that.

  11. KeriS

    Amazing Metroid game! As most of them are! Wish they would do more 2d Metroids!

  12. CrashBandicoot5091

    I’ve played most of the Metroid Prime series and the GBA games and Super Metroid. And I have to say this is the best Metroid game yet. Challenging yet balanced. Intense and addictive. The graphics are impressive for the switch. Highly recommend this one, if you love Metroid or a great starting point if you’re new to the series.

  13. ArturoV

    Good game graphics are good reminds me me of old Metroid games still has same structure just better graphics

  14. EnderW

    Amazing game, fun engaging and lots of secrets to find.

  15. PSMurray

    A lot of retro fun, with simple gameplay and some very challenging aspects that elevate it.

  16. RyanG

    Metroid Dread is the pinnacle of the 2D series. The gameplay is smooth. The action is intense. 20years later it was worth the wait!

  17. Justin

    Terrific modern Metroid side scroller! Love the design and mechanics. Story is great and gameplay is challenging and fun!

  18. master

    Awesome gameplay and reminds of what metroidvania used to be and now is

  19. Industrialized

    This is an amazing entry into the franchise. Most Metroid fans will love this.

  20. JoseS

    Very satisfied personally I recommend it excellent graphics very fast reaction time exceeds what I imagined.

  21. JamesW

    I love the Metroid Series, but since it had been so long since the last 2d entry in the series, I was a little skeptical if it would hold up compared to the others. Anyway, it totally does, and I could easily imagine this being someones favorite game in the franchise. I mean, its not my favorite… but its an exceptionally polished and fun experience, and a must play for fans of the series.

  22. Wolf

    A thoroughly enjoyable experience, delightful looking and pulse-pounding

  23. JosephM

    I have so much fun with this game i can not put it down

  24. TimothyC

    Samus is back in a brand new adventure with themes of horror, as you are continually stalked by an unstoppable force.

  25. HelenE

    Purchased as a gift. Works great. Son was happy with it.

  26. THE5THTURTLE

    Fun, very detailed graphics, great gameplay and combat systems.

  27. SGrice85

    Being completely honest, I did not finish Dread. I kept telling myself I would consider going back in and trying to give it an honest shot, but the EMMIs were more annoying than I cared for. They felt like an arbitrary roadblock which was designed to extend gameplay time than an actual threat. Getting caught never really feels like your fault, and all it ends up doing is leaving a sour taste in your mouth which results in you considering taking a short break, which becomes a long break, which results in you never returning to the game. More than a little disappointing.

  28. CharlieM

    Is there another game that I bought for my son and he plays it all the time

  29. bernzuort

    Best Metroid I ever play, excellent game is a 10, waitting for next.

  30. MatthewR

    Great game, definitely a great entry in the metroid series.

  31. skwerbs

    Super Metroid is my favorite SNES game of all time. They did a great job with new mechanics and it runs buttery smooth. I love the Prime series but 2D Metroid is my preference. After 20 years of waiting they finally released a full 2D Metroid and I’m happy to say that they nailed it!

  32. Corbulo

    Graphics, gameplay, storyline, and soundtrack is incredible! It still maintains the feeling of exploration and figuring out puzzles without showing too many tutorials. The cutscenes subtly show how to fight bosses and enemies instead of showing a whole tutorial or cutting to a practice arena. The only con is unskipable cutscenes when you die and return to the same area you died.

  33. ChristopherD

    Ordered online for pickup. Went and got it an hour and a half after placing my order. Nice.

  34. TommyS

    One of the best 2D Metroid games ever made. Great up on Metroid and played the hell out of Super. Game play is smooth and such a great story. Highly recommend for any Metroid fan or anyone who wants to get into the series

  35. Bigdan

    Good game fun and very challenging.
    Metroid is always good

  36. CorbanW

    reminds me a lot of the old super metroid, maps are fun and well laid out.

  37. JulioC

    Beautiful Metroid game and a welcome addition to the series. Amazing gameplay and challenging as well. Puzzles are easy to figure out since it’s mostly common sense. Overall excellent game.

  38. Bill

    What a great game. Brought me back to my Metroid fusion days wow

  39. CristalC

    No issues at all, it’s amazing. Comes with the plastics sealed

  40. LadyW

    Son loves to play this. Great game to pass the time away.

  41. Woozy85

    Who said you need three dimensions to have a ton of fun? Seriously though, here’s hoping this is the last 2d installment of the series.

  42. SeanH

    Great game kinda difficult but worth it would recommend

  43. WilliamW

    Bought it as a gift for my nephews. They love it and I was told it was all they wanted to play the next day.

  44. Unknown

    I’m sure the game is great, but the next day delivery was even a better surprise.

  45. FernandoA

    Really cool and challenging game. We’re hooked. This might just make me into a gamer.

  46. MikeN

    Great game . I couldn’t put it down. Sad I finished it.

  47. wilsons

    The atmosphere, sound design, and tight controls really should have had it win game of the year!

  48. VirginMaster64

    the only game I ever played from this series was the NES version the creepy gba one. Haven’t found the time to play it.

  49. SchoolMAP

    Old school metroid fan. Good graphics and gameplay.

  50. Mekanizar

    The game gave me vibes from Fusion on GBA and the final boss fight was epic!
