Feature: Metroid Prime 4 Famitsu Interview

Our first feature of 2026 is live! In late December 2025, an interview was published in Famitsu magazine with an unspecified member(s) of the Metroid Prime 4: Beyond development team at Nintendo. While other sites have published translated excerpts of the interview, this is a translation of the whole discussion. The interview reveals who asked for Metroid Prime 4 to be made and the challenges in development, discusses the open hub world of Sol Valley, Sylux and the Federation Trooper NPCs, and shares a humorous anecdote about Retro Studios’ love for Texas BBQ. It’s a very interesting read, and we hope you’ll enjoy it! A huge thank you to Darts for the translation.
