The Brazilian government may have leaked the next Metroid game, thanks to an age rating filed through the country\u2019s Ministry of Justice and Public Security.<\/p>\n

The supposed rating documentation was leaked online on July 1 and swiftly deleted, but eagle-eyed gamers were quick to take screenshots. It wasn\u2019t long before these digital snapshots went viral, making their way across forums<\/a> and social media platforms within hours.<\/p>\n

The document lists the game\u2019s title as \u2018Metroid Ravenous,\u2019 with its year of production listed for 2026.<\/p>\n

The intended age rating is listed as \u201cnot recommended for children under 10 years old,\u201d but the assigned rating is \u201cnot recommended for children under 12 years of age.\u201d<\/p>\n

While IGN can\u2019t confirm the validity of this document, the screenshot\u2019s existence is predictably sparking a massive conversation online, leaving fans equal parts excited and puzzled at the possibility of getting another Metroid game so soon after Metroid 4 Prime: Beyond, which was released in December 2025.<\/p>\n

Some players are speculating that this could be a sequel to Metroid Dread<\/a>, linking its name, \u2018Ravenous,\u2019 to Raven Beak, the main antagonist of that game.<\/p>\n

Thus far, nothing else is known about the rumored title. As aforementioned, this would be the latest Metroid game following 4 Prime: Beyond, which was met with mixed reviews on launch. We gave the game an eight out of 10 stars,<\/a> calling it an \u201cexcellent comeback\u201d despite having \u201cfew underdeveloped elements that keep it from feeling as cohesive as its predecessors.\u201d<\/p>\n
