Metroid Prime: Federation Force is an upcoming cooperative multiplayer action video game for Nintendo 3DS.[1] Announced at E3 on June 16, 2015, it is being developed by Next Level Games. A spinoff of the Metroid entries, it focuses on the Federation Marines rather than Samus Aran, and the gameplay involves a team of Marines fighting their way through enemy bases and objective-based missions. Federation Force features Blast Ball, a 3v3 multiplayer mode that had been revealed days before. Blast Ball is a soccer-like game where participants enter biomechanical suits and shoot balls into nets.[2][3] Aiming in the game is done using the 3DS' gyroscope. The graphical style is similar to Metroid Prime Hunters, and the character design draws from those in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, but the game logo uses the Galactic Federation insignia from Metroid: Other M. Federation Force is the first Metroid-related title since Other M in 2010.
Next Level Games had previously been working on a prototype for a 3DS Metroid title featuring Samus, which was shelved in favor of Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon.
