Filtran un nuevo Metroid sin anunciar: se llama

Rumors are swirling about a new Metroid title that may soon be announced, following an unusual leak from Brazil’s Ministry of Justice and Public Security. The agency briefly released an age‑rating sheet for a game titled Metroid Ravenous—an unannounced title that Nintendo has yet to confirm. The document was quickly withdrawn, but screenshots captured by users and media outlets preserved the information before it vanished.

The filing offered scant specifics about the project, yet it revealed a 2026 production year, identified Nintendo of America as the publisher, and flagged violence as a content descriptor. The initial rating suggested a 10‑plus audience, but the final classification was set at 12‑plus.

The emergence of this document has sparked intense speculation among fans, especially given that Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is already live on the Nintendo Switch 2 and its protracted development makes a rapid follow‑up in the same genre seem unlikely. Consequently, one of the most frequent theories is that Metroid Ravenous could be a return to 2D gameplay, echoing the style of Metroid Dread.

Rumors have begun to surface that a now‑deleted entry in the Brazilian Nintendo system list points to 2026 as the production year for a new title, according to a tweet from user @necrolipe on July 1, 2026.

The game, crafted by Spain’s MercurySteam, originally launched on Nintendo Switch in 2021 and earned praise from both critics and players alike.

MercurySteam has been quietly working on two significant, yet unannounced, projects: one of them, Blades of Fire, was released last year, while the other remains undisclosed.

At this stage, no platforms, release dates, or gameplay specifics have been confirmed, leaving room for speculation that it could be an expansion, a smaller venture, or even an accidental entry.

Regardless, the brief appearance and swift removal of the listing suggest that Nintendo may have a Metroid‑related announcement in the pipeline for the coming months.
