In an unexpected twist, gaming enthusiasts are buzzing with excitement over the possible leak of a new Metroid game for the Nintendo Switch. The Brazilian government may have spilled the beans through an age rating listing on their Ministry of Justice and Public Security's website, which was swiftly removed but not before screenshots were taken and shared across various platforms. The title of this anticipated sequel is rumored to be 'Metroid Ravenous,' with a production year set for 2026. The rating suggests it's not recommended for children under 12 years of age, stirring curiosity amongst fans who have been eagerly awaiting another installment since Metroid 4 Prime: Beyond was released in December 2025. Speculation runs wild about whether this could be a sequel to Metroid Dread, with 'Ravenous' potentially referencing the main antagonist Raven Beak from that game. However, further details about the rumored title remain unknown at this point. This potential new addition to the Metroid series follows 4 Prime: Beyond, which received mixed reviews upon release.
