Metroid X released!

X parasites have made their way to the planet Zebeth, infecting enemies and turning them into mutated versions of their former selves. Thankfully Samus' suit can absorb these parasites and use them to her advantage. Each parasite collected grants a charge to Samus' X beam, gather three charges to open locked doors and proceed to the next area. But take too long in your mission and the dreaded Metroid X will appear, chasing you relentlessly and ensuring that Zebes will be your final resting place...

Metroid X takes the classic NES game and streamlines it into an arcade style experience, designed to be enjoyed in short bursts. Play alone or together in the brand new split screen co-op mode! Also enjoy brand new Boss Rush and Assist modes in single or two player as well. Compete to make the online top 100 high score list!
