Metroid Prime: Federation Force Launches August 19, More to Be Revealed at PAX East

Though the reveal of the game at last year’s E3 showing was controversial to say the least, Nintendo has remained adamant that fans will find something to love in Metroid Prime: Federation Force. The company took to Twitter today to announce the game’s release date and promised a first look on the PAX East showfloor.

Metroid Prime: Federation Force will hit the 3DS on August 19 in North America, and September 2 in Europe. The sci-fi shooter features team-based mission gameplay as well as multiplayer.
