metro nintendo switch

Metroid games for Nintendo Switch are available in both digital and physical formats; listings commonly label releases as “Digital” or “Physical.”

Most Metroid listings indicate single-player only — these releases are presented as solo experiences without multiplayer modes.

Different titles are set on various planets and locations across the series, including ZDR, the alien world Tallon IV, and the mysterious planet Viewros.

Listings show compatibility with Nintendo Switch hardware variants including the standard Switch, Switch Lite, Switch OLED, and a referenced next‑generation console model.

Genres vary by release but commonly include Adventure, First‑Person, Action, Platformer, and Puzzle, depending on the specific title.

Listings mention modes and difficulty options such as Rookie Mode (increased health from items and reduced boss damage), an unlockable Dread Mode (available after completing Hard Mode), and a Boss Rush mode unlocked after finishing the game.

Listings note multiple control schemes, including mouse‑style aiming and the option to aim using a controller configured to behave like a mouse.

The next‑generation edition lists two modes: Quality Mode (60 fps at 4K when docked, 1080p handheld) and Performance Mode (120 fps at 1080p when docked, 720p handheld). Both modes are HDR compatible.
