read from Polygon:
The next Metroid game may be coming out sooner than nearly anyone expected. As spotted by a member of the Famiboards forum, Brazil’s Ministry of Justice and Public Security (which handles the country's ratings) appears to have leaked the next entry in the series, Metroid Ravenous.
Assuming the rating details are accurate, there are two big surprises: the first is that Nintendo is pushing Metroid this hard after years of neglect (there was an 11-year gap between Metroid: Other M and Dread), and the second is that the next entry in the series is apparently set to release in 2026. Brazilian journalist “Necro” Felipe Lima added that the documents were based on about 41 minutes of gameplay and that the game's recommended age rating of 12 was due to its violence (weapons, blood, death) and light sexual content.
