[narrator] -Exploration,
and Dread.
An unprecedented threat is closing in on Samus.
Metroid Dread.
The most powerful bounty hunter in the galaxy,
Samus Aran.
On her latest mission, she'll explore the inner belly of a beastly planet.
[music ends]
[dark synth beat] This mission will take Samus
to the as-yet-unexplored Planet ZDR,
which holds many secrets.
Beneath the planet's surface, lies a massive labyrinth of distinct areas,
from caves to magma chambers, ancient forests,
and underwater depths.
At Samus's disposal, is a powerful Arm Cannon,
[triumphant orchestral music] Missiles, her jumping prowess, a new slide,
and a brutal Melee Counter, which deflects enemy attacks.
As Samus continues to explore,
she'll gain additional abilities.
Cling to certain walls, and ceilings, with the Spider Magnet.
Morph into a ball to enter narrow passages with the Morph Ball.
[dark synth beat returns] Move at high speed, with the Flash Shift.
Lock on to multiple targets at once with the Storm Missile.
With each ability you uncover as Samus,
your exploratory options will expand.
Eventually, the whole planet will open up and be yours to explore at will.
The abilities you gain can also be used in combat against enemies,
making them versatile in a number of situations.

[hectic orchestral music] Research robots called E.M.M.I. will track down Samus,
and attempt to capture her.
Their bodies are covered with tough armor that regular attacks cannot penetrate.
[music ends] If they capture Samus, she will meet her end.
[suspenseful industrial music] E.M.M.I. hunt down Samus by detecting the sounds she makes.
And once one sees her, the real hunt begins.
To evade the relentless, E.M.M.I., [robotic chirping noises]
your only option is to use Samus's abilities to avoid detection and escape.
Different types of E.M.M.I., with varying capabilities,
lie in wait across Planet ZDR.

[chilling synth music] Deadly unknown organisms lurk in the dark.
Ruins of a long lost civilization litter the planet.
And is the mysterious bird-like Chozo figure,
ally or enemy?

Beyond the mission, beyond the dread,
what true terror lies in wait? [music ends]
