BERLIN: It's been over 20 years since "Metroid Prime" revolutionised the first-person shooter genre. With "Metroid Prime Remastered," Nintendo is now bringing the video game classic to the Switch console.

Players slip into the role of bounty hunter Samus Aran, who’s on the prowl on the planet Tallon IV. In a world full of deep, dark tunnels, you are completely on your own. For a shooter, the game comes with a lot of puzzle elements that you have to solve to find your way.
