Many of you will be wondering exactly where the recently released Metroid Prime 4 fits in the series timeline and thankfully Nintendo has told Famitsu the answer. Metroid Prime 4 is set after Super Metroid and before Metroid Fusion. Due to Samus ending up in another dimension in Metroid Prime 4, Nintendo says it “wanted to be able to create a free and original setting for Metroid Prime without affecting the 2D Metroid series.”
