A great way to escape the confines of previous games is by doing away with numbered entries and thinking of each game as a standalone title.

The next Metroid Prime game should also do this, considering the Metroid Prime trilogy provided a decisive conclusion. Despite references to it being ' The Witcher 4' until a proper title is revealed, CDPR has only referred to it as 'the next installment in The Witcher series.' The studio’s co-founder Marcin Iwinski has stated that the team designed the Witcher games as a trilogy, so this new title will likely favor a subtitle instead. The first and perhaps simplest change of significance to the Witcher is its team’s decision to drop the '4' from the title. RELATED: Metroid Prime 4 is Likely Far Away, But Fans Should Stay Optimistic Leaving Numbered Entries Behind Metroid Prime 4 would do well to take notes. From what is known though, it seems the series is moving in the right direction Witcher 4 will be made in Unreal Engine 5, it won't be an Epic Games Store exclusive, and it will mark the beginning of a new saga.

The hype that ensued speaks to the love players have for that franchise, especially considering how few details were provided. The fourth entry into any series can be touch-and-go, so Metroid Prime 4 could learn a lot from another series preparing for a post-trilogy sequel: CD Projekt Red's Witcher 4.Ĭonfirmation of The Witcher 4 took the gaming world by surprise when CDPR posted a teaser for the game on Twitter last month. This decision has delayed the game’s release indefinitely, but does mean that Nintendo is taking its development seriously. Originally intended to be produced with Bandai Namco, Nintendo restarted the game's production under Retro Studios in 2019. Metroid Prime 4 was first announced in June 2017, but there is still very little known about the title.
