Metroid Prime: Federation Force

About

Metroid Prime Federation Force is a co-op shooter that drops you into a war between space marines and pirates. Up to four players team up to pilot customizable mechs, mixing subweapons and MODs to tackle missions. Each squad member picks a role, support, offense, defense, or utility, and coordinates to take down enemies, bosses, and environmental hazards. The game balances action with strategy as you adapt to shifting threats and map layouts. Missions range from base assaults to boss hunts, all set in the Metroid Prime universe. The game leans heavily on teamwork, offering both local and online multiplayer. Customization adds replayability with 16 possible mech builds per mission. While the single-player mode exists, the real strength is shared play, where roles and communication shape success. Early reviews noted its chaotic but fun co-op focus, though solo runs can feel repetitive. Released in 2016, it remains a niche pick for 3DS owners seeking a sci-fi squad shooter.
