Metroid Prime 3: Corruption

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption is a 2007 <a href="/facts/Action-adventure_game/djec9lIK">action-adventure game</a> developed by <a href="/facts/Retro_Studios/rLNVbPlg">Retro Studios</a> and published by <a href="/facts/Nintendo/dMrLpaHu">Nintendo</a> for the <a href="/facts/Wii/BxUgl2da">Wii</a>. The seventh main game in the <a href="/facts/Metroid/PPUh26WA">Metroid</a> series, it was released in North America and Europe in 2007 and in Japan in 2008.
Corruption is set six months after <a href="/facts/Metroid_Prime_2%3a_Echoes/NP9lJc2r">Metroid Prime 2: Echoes</a> (2004). The player controls the bounty hunter <a href="/facts/Samus_Aran/100PtIe0">Samus Aran</a>, who becomes infected with <a href="/facts/Characters_in_the_Metroid_series/cuAjJcIu">Phazon</a> by her doppelgänger, <a href="/facts/Dark_Samus/cuAjJcIu">Dark Samus</a>. Samus works to prevent the Phazon from spreading to other planets while being corrupted by the Phazon.
The player uses the <a href="/facts/Wii_Nunchuk/0uaGlccQ">Wii Nunchuk</a> to move and the <a href="/facts/Wii_Remote/0uaGlccQ">Wii Remote</a> to jump, aim and fire. Corruption introduces features such as Hypermode, which allows Samus to use more powerful attacks, and the ability to command her gunship. The new control scheme took a year to develop and delayed the release several times. The game was first shown to the public at the <a href="/facts/E3_2005/0tq1j8qq">E3 2005</a> trade show.
Like the previous Prime games, Corruption received acclaim for its gameplay, graphics and music, though some were divided on the controls. More than one million copies were sold in 2007. It was rereleased in 2009 as part of the compilation <a href="/facts/Metroid_Prime%3a_Trilogy/6wQAWXtc">Metroid Prime: Trilogy</a>. <a href="/facts/Metroid_Prime_4%3a_Beyond/FRhhsbEE">Metroid Prime 4: Beyond</a> is scheduled for 2025 for the <a href="/facts/Nintendo_Switch/UPy7Bcyu">Nintendo Switch</a>.
