A fan of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Metroid has reimagined Princess of the Zora Mipha in the gear of Samus Aran, creating an impressive futuristic look at the fan-favorite BOTW Champion. Breath of the Wild is one of the Nintendo Switch's biggest and most popular games, but the 2021 launch of Metroid Dread has also cemented the game as a Switch classic, and a must-play for many.
The Metroid series is one of Nintendo's biggest, yet prior to the launch of Dread, fans had been waiting a long time for a new game. Metroid Prime 4 was first announced back in 2017, but after switching developers in 2019, news on the game has been quiet, with fans unsure on its current state. To the surprise of many, Metroid Dread was announced during the summer 2021 Nintendo Direct, marking the first 2D Metroid in nearly 20 years. When it launched in October, the game became an immediate success and was even nominated for The Game Awards 2021's Game of the Year.

The artwork has been a success on Reddit, amassing over 1,000 Upvotes at the time of writing.
