Metroid Prime 4’s Spot in the Metroid Timeline Officially Confirmed

In a recent Famitsu interview, the developers of Metroid Prime 4 revealed the game takes place chronologically between Super Metroid and Metroid Fusion. This means the events of Metroid Prime 4 happen before those in Metroid Dread, the most recent 2D Metroid game released in 2021. The interview also highlighted that Metroid Prime 4 is designed to have its own independent story and setting, rather than being closely tied to the 2D Metroid games.
