Check out the Direct trailer, “Sounds of Dread”:

About Metroid Dread

Upon investigating a mysterious transmission on Planet ZDR, Samus faces a mysterious foe that traps her in this dangerous world. The remote planet has been overrun by vicious alien lifeforms and murderous robots called E.M.M.I. Hunt or be hunted as you make your way through a labyrinth of enemies in Samus’ most intense side-scrolling adventure yet.

Samus is more agile and capable than ever

Guide Samus Aran, an intergalactic bounty hunter raised by an ancient tribe, and traverse the many environments of a dangerous world. Parkour over obstacles, slide through tight spaces, counter enemies, and battle your way through the planet. Through her countless missions, Samus has never experienced a threat like the dread of ZDR.

Japanese Commercials

On top of the Nintendo Direct details and all of the Metroid Dread reports, Japan even released three new commercials highlighting the game and its horror aspects. Remember, these are commercials and serve more to sell the game as opposed to showing off details.
