Metroid Dread

4 years, 4 months - A mysterious planned entry in the Metroid franchise, Metroid Dread appeared and then quickly disappeared on Nintendo title plan lists and in magazine articles in time for E3 2005. Nintendo would later decline comment on the title, keeping to itself whether its original listing was somehow an error or what development state the title is/was in, or whether or not the game still exists. No screenshot or further confirmation of the game has been released, then or since. Should we still prepare ourselves for the arrival Dread? At the moment, only Nintendo knows...

According to reports and rumors, the game was said to be a traditional 2D entry in the franchise after the long-in-development Metroid Prime Hunters, and would follow on the GBA series of titles in a storyline set after Metroid Fusion.
