FAQ

Walkthrough

1
What is Metroid Prime Remastered? It is a 2023 remaster of the 2002 action first-person Metroid game developed by Retro Studios.
2
How does it differ from the original and Trilogy versions? Unlike the _Trilogy_ version which was a graphics upscale with Wii controls, _Remastered_ has significantly updated models, textures, and effects for modern HD visuals. It also offers multiple control schemes, including a default "Dual Stick" option.
3
Where does it fit in the Metroid timeline? _Metroid Prime_ takes place shortly after the original _Metroid_ and before _Metroid II_.
4
How do you save the game? You must find Save Stations scattered across Tallon or return to your Gunship. There are no (checkpoints) or auto-saves, so save manually before quitting.
5
How do you perform a Double Bomb Jump? This version includes the "Spring Ball" function from _Metroid Prime Trilogy_. In Morph Ball mode, hop, lay one Bomb in midair, then jump into the Bomb's explosion.
6
Where should you go if lost? Ensure Hints are turned on. After wandering aimlessly for a few minutes, your suit will provide an alert indicating the next story objective.
7
How do you get the different endings? The percentage of items collected determines the ending; time is not a factor. Scans in the Log Book do not count towards this percentage.
8
What is needed for 100% completion? You need to collect the Wave, Ice, Plasma, and Phazon Beams; Varia, Gravity, and Phazon Suits; Morph Ball, Bombs, Spider Ball, Boost Ball, and Power Bombs (Morph Ball upgrades); Thermal and X-Ray Visors; Charge Beam; Grapple Beam; Space Jump Boots; 250 Missiles (Missile Launcher and 49 Expansions); 14 Energy Tanks; 8 Power Bombs (original four and 4 Expansions); and 4 Beam Combos (Super Missile, Wavebuster, Ice Spreader, Flamethrower).
9
What if you are one item short of 100%? The Phazon Beam and Phazon Suit are counted as two separate items, even though they are acquired simultaneously.

Tips

Save frequently at Save Stations or your Gunship, as there are no (checkpoints) or auto-saves.
Ensure Hints are enabled if you find yourself lost.
The Phazon Beam and Phazon Suit count as two distinct items for 100% completion.
