Was anyone else hoping for more of an evolution in gameplay? It looks like it plays exactly like Metroid Prime 2 but that game is 20 years old.

I really want this game to do well but that trailer is making me worried.

They did great with Metroid Dread, putting a new spin on an old classic.

I have some faith that they won't just be rehashing an old formula and that this "Beyond" aspect will have some gameplay twists.

This trailer seems meant to reassure those of us who have been waiting decades for a true successor to Prime that "yes, in fact this is it".

I expect we will see more trailers as it gets closer, teasing some of the new story and gameplay innovations once they are more polished.

I'm cautiously optimistic, but prime is made by a completely different developer than dread so there's no guarantees, unfortunately
