These are less what you’d think of as boss fights and more akin to stealth missions (and sometimes a manic race to the finish line if you are spotted). One repeated encounter you’ll have is with the creepy, crawling EMMI bots which you might have seen a lot of in previews of Metroid Dread. I don’t want to give anything away, but these are some of the best boss fights I’ve ever played in an action platformer: Without exception,they seemed impossible at first, but post-victory, I felt like they’d made me a better player. The variation is welcome, especially in contrast to the way Samus Returns pitted you against the same boss bugs many times over. Even as you content yourself with Nintendo's current offering in the Metroid universe, you should also be looking to the future of the series, wondering where it can go from here.Those boss fights range from the traditional big, drooling monsters with patterns and weak points to learn, to almost Smash Bros.-esque encounters with enemies that mimic your move set. Samus' latest adventure continues her story, and a large part of its entertainment stems from mechanics that were introduced to the series decades ago. Metroid Dread is as enjoyable as it is long-awaited. Updated Octoby Will Quick: With the release of Metroid Dread, fans of the franchise now have a clearer understanding of where the game falls on the timeline. Even though there are new entries in the works, it’s possible to organize the current games into a proper timeline. Metroid is the same with each installment either jumping backward or forwards as it progresses. RELATED: The First Games Released On The N64 (In Chronological Order)

Super Mario Brothers and The Legend Of Zelda are two examples of series where chronological order is more of an afterthought. The more vague the setup is, the easier it is to play around with the timeline. While this is still true for films, books, and TV series, gaming works a little bit differently. There once was a time when creating installments in a series was the norm.
