Corruption spreads through the galaxy, and only Samus Aran can burn it out.
About
A corruption creeps across the galaxy, and Samus Aran carries it in her own veins. Metroid Prime 3: Corruption is a first-person shooter developed by Retro Studios and published by Nintendo for the Wii on August 27, 2007, closing out the Prime trilogy begun on the GameCube.
Built around the Wii’s pointer controls, it lets players aim Samus’s arm cannon almost anywhere on screen while she moves. The game is remembered for that motion-driven combat and bounty hunter lore, and for a story that closes the book on the trilogy that began with Metroid Prime.
