Not at all like Metroid Prime.
The game has one big overworld, just like Metroid, but when you advance, the door back is locked (at least for now, I should be able to return later). There are some optional places you can go to, but there isn't much to do except for collecting ammo, gold and secret tokens. You can get quests in your Dojo, and those optional places can become locations for your active quest.
It's kind of hard to explain, but while you can explore and backtrak a little, it isn't as fruitful as in the Metroid series.
Still, the paths are not entirely linear, so you never feel too constrained during gameplay. There are also sidequests occasionally.
