I found this to be most noticable when I was trying to grapple across a few areas. In terms of a standard difficulty mode, Dread feels like the most difficult Metroid game to date, and the controls can take some getting used to, requiring you to press and memorise multiple buttons at once.

Dread certainly lives up to its hype, delivering a beautiful alien world filled with monstrous and relentless foes, and gameplay that remains faithful and familiar to anyone who has played a classic Metroid title previously. Metroid Dread is a huge leap forward for MercurySteam since their last outing with Metroid: Samus Returns, bringing the expertise of their previous game, into a new generation with a much more polished look. ![]() After seventeen years of being a Metroid fan, my wait for a follow-up to Metroid Fusion is finally over.
