Last Updated: September 10, 2026, 12:22 PM UTC<\/em><\/p>\n After a period of anticipation, UK-based fans can finally secure their physical copies of Metroid Ravenous<\/em> for the Nintendo Switch 2. While the wait has been significant, the preorder floodgates have officially opened, offering collectors a chance to grab the standard physical release, the premium Special Edition, and the accompanying line of character figures.<\/p>\n \nAs of 1:31 PM BST on September 10, the highly sought-after Metroid Ravenous Special Edition<\/em>-priced at \u00a399.99-has already vanished from the official Nintendo UK store. The inventory was depleted in a matter of minutes, underscoring the intense demand for this title. <\/p>\n If you missed the initial window, don’t lose hope. I am actively monitoring secondary retailers and major storefronts for potential restocks. For real-time alerts on when additional units might hit the market, I recommend following @IGNUKFinds on X (formerly Twitter). Historically, Nintendo often releases subsequent waves of stock for high-profile launches, so staying vigilant is key.<\/p>\n \nThe Metroid Ravenous Special Edition<\/em> is a comprehensive package designed for dedicated fans of the franchise. Beyond the base game, the bundle includes:<\/p>\n * Premium Steelbook Case:<\/strong> A durable, artistically designed housing for your game card. Given that this amiibo is locked behind the Special Edition, it is expected to become a significant collector’s item. If you manage to find a retailer with remaining stock, acting quickly is essential to avoid paying inflated aftermarket prices.<\/p>\n \nBeyond the Special Edition, Nintendo is rolling out a broader range of amiibo figures alongside the game\u2019s launch next year. These figures are designed to enhance the Metroid Ravenous<\/em> experience, potentially unlocking in-game bonuses or cosmetic upgrades. Keep an eye on official announcements to see how these figures integrate with the new hardware\u2019s capabilities.<\/p>\nThe Special Edition Sell-Out<\/h2>\n
What\u2019s Inside the Collector\u2019s Bundle?<\/h2>\n
\n* Exclusive Samus (Metroid Suit) Amiibo:<\/strong> This is the centerpiece of the collection. It is vital to understand that this specific figure is exclusive to the Special Edition<\/strong>. Unlike other figures in the series, it will not be sold as a standalone purchase. <\/p>\nExpanding Your Collection<\/h2>\n
