[Rumor] Metroid Prime 4 developed by Bandai Namco. Ridge Racer 8 exclusive to Switch

After a time without much movement, leaks are coming back. And they are coming back with interesting info about new Nintendo Switch software.

According to Youtuber Doctre81, Metroid Prime 4 could be being developed by Bandai Namco Singapore. Doctre81 is known for his accuracy in the past, since he discovered many leaks which have turned out to be true.

A lot of Bandai Namco Singapore employees have come over from LucasFilm after the cancellation of Star Wars 1313. One of these employees lists on his (confirmed) Linkedin profile (which shows 20 years experience across of a number of reputable publishers) an Unannounced Game (First Person Shooter/Adventure Exclusive to Nintendo Switch). Furthermore, this Lead Designer at Bandai Namco Singapore also lists Ridge Racer 8 as exclusive to Nintendo Switch.

As always, take this rumor with tons of salt. This unannounced “first person shooter/adventure” could not be Metroid Prime 4, but it really sounds that it will end up being true after its announcement at last year’s E3.
