Preorders for Metroid Ravenous Now Open in the UK, Featuring a £100 Special Edition

After a brief wait, fans in the UK can now place preorders for Metroid Ravenous on Nintendo Switch 2. This includes the coveted physical editions, such as the much-anticipated Special Edition priced at £99.99, along with the new amiibo figures that are set to launch alongside the game next year. As of September 10, 1:31 pm BST, the Special Edition of Metroid Ravenous has already sold out on Nintendo's website within minutes of becoming available. I'll be monitoring other retailers for any updates, so stay tuned for potential restocks. It's also possible that Nintendo may release additional units, so following relevant social media accounts could provide timely information. The Special Edition features the game along with a unique Steelbook case and an exclusive Samus amiibo (Metroid Suit), which is not sold separately. Given the limited nature of this offering, I advise acting quickly if you're interested. For those looking for standard editions, prices start at £49.99 for digital copies and £58.99 for physical copies. The physical version includes the game cartridge, ensuring ownership and alleviating any future digital access issues. The Samus amiibo is available for £16.99, while the Choco Statue amiibo is priced at £33.99. Both amiibo will debut alongside the game on January 28, 2027. What is Metroid Ravenous? Metroid Ravenous is set to exclusively launch on Nintendo Switch 2 on January 28, 2027. As a sequel to Metroid Dread, this game promises a new 2D side-scrolling adventure featuring Samus, the iconic bounty hunter. Metroid Dread received a 9/10 rating in a review, and it is one of my all-time favorites. I am eagerly anticipating the release of Metroid Ravenous. In the latest trailer, Samus declares, “I was attacked by unknown assailants and sustained grave injuries. I don't know where I am; getting back to the surface won't be easy.” “My chances of escaping this moon are slim at best. Still... I will survive. And I will make it home. Even if I have to feed on my enemies to do so. It's eat or be eaten.” This installment appears to be a continuation of Metroid Dread, showcasing a fierce and primal Samus, reminiscent of her character's arc in the previous game. I'm fully on board for this adventure.
