General News
* After the developer of Metroid Dread, MercurySteam, caught flak for poor working conditions in 2021, MercurySteam co-founder Enric Álvarez has now come out to discuss the development: "I don't think the development was chaotic. A chaotic development does not end with one of the best games in the franchise. It doesn't end with a game that has sold more than three million copies. It doesn't end with a game that has won TGA awards. That's all I have to say about it."
