Mercury Stem Magnum Opus brings back the Metroid franchise for an incredible successor to Samus Returns.

I personally think this is the best Metroid ever made. It takes everything Fusion did years ago and expands upon it creating a title worthy to be called a sequel in every possible way.

Samus feels amazing to control in any instance of the game, and every powerup and discovery makes you feel like an unstoppable machine.... untile the EMMI shows up, and that's wehre the horror aspect of the title resurfaces. Some of the most tense pursuits in the series, able to be compared to the best horror games.

I love the story presented, able to tie to FUsion and evolving the story of the Metroid universe with an incredible set of events and plot twists. Even past fan favorites are able to return in an amazing redesign.

I personally prefer the more grim atmosphere of fusion's ambience, but I can't deny how good Dread is. An absolute masterpiece.
