New Metroid Prime 4 Trailer Has Space Battles, Samus Flips, And An Akira Slide

Nintendo has unveiled a new Metroid Prime 4: Beyond trailer titled Survive, showcasing what awaits Samus Aran on the planet Viewros. The roughly 70-second video features the bounty hunter’s gunship in aerial combat and a pretty slick motorcycle move by Samus that’s an homage to the Akira slide.

The Metroid Prime 4 trailer–seen below–also highlights a variety of locales on the mysterious planet. Samus finds herself in a lush jungle, outside a spiky black building that would look at home in The Matrix, and what we can only assume is the obligatory lava area at one point. The bounty hunter also scans a new enemy mechanoid called a psy-bot soldier as well as fights the boss Aberax (previously highlighted during a Nintendo Treehouse stream).
