Metroid Dread (2021)
Would likely rate a 9.5 but will round up for the obvious passion behind the product.
Amazing game start to finish. The exploration, the mechanics and boss fights. If there would be two critiques the first would be to improve the soundtrack, it was a common critique I had with Samus Returns, the remakes of previous metroid songs are excellent but new material lacks the same emotion as previous entries. But where they may dip a bit in sound they exceed in graphics and mechanics. Both Samus Returns and Dread feature stunning attention to detail in environments and bosses are mechanically brilliant both games featured some of my most memorable boss encounters; though my favorite franchise boss would still be quadraxis from Metroid Prime 2. I'd say give this game a try you will get frustrated at times but this is matched or exceeded by the feeling of victory when you master the encounter.
