AMetroid Prime-related announcement could be coming soon according to a mysterious yet eyebrow-raising reliable leaker. Claimed “leaks” related toMetroid Primehave been happening for years, as rumors continue to swirl regarding not justMetroid Prime 4but also remasters and remakes of the originalMetroid Primeand theMetroid Prime Trilogy. It’s difficult to take anyMetroid Primeleak seriously, but this leak stands out in an intriguing way.
Leaker Fun_Way_6592 isn’t well-known. Their Reddit posts have almost entirely been ignored, yet they’ve consistently and publicly leaked Nintendo announcements ahead of key events. These leaks have then been proved entirely accurate. One key example shared on the GamingLeaksAndRumours subreddit involves sending a moderator the message “Zeldafans will be crying Tears of joy tomorrow” ahead of thereveal ofThe Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom’s full title. By all appearances, the leaker has legitimate access to insider Nintendo information.

Now, Fun_Way_6592 is apparently back, once again sending a message to a moderator of the GamingLeaksAndRumours subreddit. The message this time around is “Do you think everyone is primed and ready?” That’s the entire tease. There are no capitalized letters, but the context should be clear. This leaker knows information aboutupcoming Nintendo projects, and they’re implying a “Prime”-related announcement is forthcoming.Metroid Primefans may have something to look forward to soon.
The moderator for GamingLeaksAndRumours reached out to the Reddit user hoping for further information or some sort of verification. They shared that the mysterious user didn’t respond, though. They decided to share the leak regardless due to the leaker’s past “undefeated record” of reliable Nintendo leaks. There is no official confirmation or verified evidence of the leak’s truthfulness, though, so it’s best to maintain some amount of skepticism.
One interesting aspect of this leaker’s routine is that they typically share their leaks only when the announcement is coming very soon. As in, their leaks are typically shared the day before a Nintendo Direct or other official event or announcement. While aNintendo Direct is typically hosted in Februaryeach year, there are no currently announced events, and a reveal on the weekend of New Year’s Day seems extremely unlikely. But if an announcement is coming, it could happen surprisingly soon.
As for whatMetroid Primeannouncement could be forthcoming, the most likely possibility is the rumored remaster of the originalMetroid Prime. Many reliable sources believed theMetroid Primeremake for Nintendo Switch would launch in 2022, though that obviously hasn’t happened. Newdetails regardingMetroid Prime 4are also a possibility, but unlikely given Nintendo’s current priority is theLegend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Perhaps there could be aMetroid Prime-related surprise instead. Time will tell.
