A character modeler who worked on the Halo series creating Spartan soldier models has become a lead character artist for the rebooted Metroid Prime 4 under Retro Studios.
Nintendo Senior Managing Executive Officer Shinya Takahashi has appeared in a Metroid Prime 4 development update video noting development has restarted, with original Metroid Prime trilogy developer Retro Studios involved.
While Metroid Prime 4 was announced at last year’s E3, we ended up not seeing any of it at this year’s gaming expo. Nintendo of America’s Bill Trinen and localization manager Nate Bihldorff explained why.
We recently reported on the rumors about Metroid Prime 4 possibly being developed by Bandai Namco Studios Singapore and “multiple sources” from Eurogamer have confirmed its accuracy.
A LinkedIn profile for a lead designer at Bandai Namco Studios Singapore was found by YouTuber Doctre81, showing that Ridge Racer 8 may possibly be in development exclusively for Nintendo Switch.
