And that’s credits on Metroid Prime 4: Beyond.

I'll explain more when production genuinely begins in January, but until then, here's a piece of...I guess you'd call it "concept art" I made. You might recognize a WIP version of this I posted a few months ago.
New project! Get excited!

Hey everyone.
So, this is really difficult. I...have some things I need to finally be honest about.
A little over a year ago, I released my first commercial #indiegame, New Meat. As much as I've been trying to hide it and act positive, what's followed has been...demoralizing.

Even a couple years later, I stand by everything I said when I made TotK my Game of the Year back in 2023.
It’s the best open-world game ever made. Just as true now as it was then.

I don’t know how a Metroid game has a Season 6 but Miles McKenzie makes it happen.
