Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is nearly upon us, and Nintendo has released a slew of new details about Samus’ latest adventure. Among the exciting reveals is intel on her new motorcycle vehicle, showcased in recent trailers.
Known as Vi-O-La, Samus’ motorcycle appears to be a key component for traversal and exploration throughout the game. Vi-O-La was left behind by an alien civilization on Viewros, the planet that serves as the game’s setting.
Players will be able to use Vi-O-La to cover vast distances between zones, collecting crystals and battling enemies along the way. Additionally, Samus can instantly summon the bike to her location in areas where it is permitted, making it an invaluable tool for quick travel.
The bike is ridden in third-person view, offering a dynamic perspective as you explore. When Samus dismounts, the game automatically switches back to a first-person point of view, maintaining the immersive experience that fans love.
With Vi-O-La playing such a central role, traversal and exploration in Metroid Prime 4: Beyond promise to be more engaging and fast-paced than ever before.
