The game titled “Metroid Prime 4: Beyond” has been given an age rating, leading to speculation that a new Nintendo Direct could be imminent. It’s possible that we might get an official release date for “Metroid Prime 4” in the last week of July 2025.
In 2017, it was initially announced that the fourth Metroid Prime game would be rebooted. However, it wasn’t until June 2024 that Nintendo unveiled the gameplay for Samus’s next major adventure and mentioned that the title aimed for a 2025 release. Although a second gameplay trailer emerged in March 2025, Metroid Prime 4 is yet to receive a specific launch date.
On July 25th, the upcoming action-adventure game, Metroid Prime 4, received a rating from the South Korean Game Rating and Administration Committee (GRAC), according to VGC. The game was classified as suitable for ages 12 and above, which aligns with the age ratings of previous games in the Metroid Prime series. While game ratings alone don’t necessarily mean an immediate release, this one might suggest that Nintendo is wrapping up the final legal processes before a global launch, given that they have already announced a 2025 release window for Metroid Prime 4.
Metroid Prime 4 Release Date May Be Announced Before the End of the Month
A few days ago, a popular leaker named NateTheHate revealed that another Nintendo Direct is expected around late July 2025. VGC then confirmed this news using information from their industry contacts. Given that Metroid Prime 4 is scheduled for release in 2025 and we’re already past the midpoint of the year, this upcoming Nintendo Direct appears to be an ideal chance for them to officially announce its launch date.
Historically, Nintendo Directs usually occur on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays, with Wednesdays being the most frequent day in recent years. If there is another event planned for late July 2025, it’s likely that it will be officially announced no later than the 29th, which happens to be a Tuesday. This is because Nintendo typically reveals these broadcasts a day prior to the event.
Regarding the upcoming Nintendo Direct, it’s unclear what other games might be included aside from Metroid Prime 4. However, there’s more certainty about when we might expect Metroid Prime 4 to release. Based on Nintendo’s history of announcing release dates months in advance, it seems probable that Metroid Prime 4 will come out during the 2025 holiday season or even at its beginning. The recently announced Pokemon Legends: Z-A, releasing on October 16, makes a mid-October release for other games less likely, but any date between then and Thanksgiving remains possible.
