Retro Studios hires Halo character modeller as lead artist

According to VGC, industry veteran Kyle Hefley has joined Retro Studios as Metroid Prime 4’s lead artist!

The character modeller is best known for his work on the famous Halo series – with over 9 years of experience with the franchise! He definitely seems like the right man for the job, in light of his amazing portfolio.

Metroid Prime 4 development

For those that somehow where able to miss the news, Nintendo scrapped and restarted development on Metroid Prime 4 earlier this year. The reason for that was that the game wasn’t up to Nintendo’s standards.

With both Retro Studios and Hefley at the helm this time, things look very promising to say the least.

Metroid Prime Trilogy

Well we can not make a Metroid related item without touching up on the trilogy as well. Lot’s of people have been hoping for Nintendo to release it. But till now that has not happened. Could that be due to the fact that they are tweaking or dare we even dream making it better than it initially was?

Either way we hope the Trilogy makes it to the Nintendo Switch regardless. Who does not like Metroid Prime on the go right?
