Every December, we close out the year with our annual End of Year feature. This year we celebrated the 30th anniversary of Super Metroid, the long-awaited unveiling of Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, and the 20th anniversary of Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. Our End of Year feature highlights these milestones, as well as the other Metroid news we got this year. We also mark the three interviews we conducted with Ai Kobayashi, Cid Newman and Jacobo Luengo.
On behalf of the Shinesparkers team, I would like to thank all of our readers for their continued support, and wish you all a happy new year! In 2025, we will finally get to play Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, and we have Metroid Prime 1-3: A Visual Retrospective to look forward to as well.
