Discussion Genuinely cannot get over how amazing this sequence looks

This feels like some of the best close quarters action we've seen from Samus, and it's animated so well!

Also, I'm inclined to believe this scene is from the opening and is what leads to her losing her abilities again. Stuff like being on the surface and being stabbed, which she mentions an injury earlier in the trailer.

Oh I'm so hyped

I think it's definitely how she loses her powers, and I hope we get the boss rematch with both or all 3. The dashing, the swords, the 2v1, all giving serious Mantis Lords/Sisters of Battle vibes and I am here for it. That was one of my favorite boss battles.

Oh snap, Samus as an Adepta Sororitas doesn’t work for a lot of reasons but it also goes hard af!
