THE YEAR IS 20X5 IN THE HISTORY OF THE COSMOS. The unknown life-form code-named “METROID” discovered by the GALACTIC FEDERATION on Planet SR388 has been stolen by SPACE PIRATES. The greatest of all the space hunters, SAMUS ARAN, has been sent on a one-man mission to penetrate the SPACE PIRATE base on planet ZEBES and destroy METROID before it is transformed into a WEAPON OF MASS DESTRUCTION. Even with his robotic SUPERPOWERS and SPACE SUIT, will he be able to save the galaxy?
Meanwhile, in another timeline…
The year is 20X5 of the Cosmic Calendar. Space Pirates have seized samples of the incredibly dangerous life-form “Metroid” discovered by the Galactic Federation on planet SR388. In their hands, Metroid could destroy all of galactic civilization. Only the greatest bounty hunter, Samus Aran, is able to penetrate the Space Pirate base on Planet Zebes, her homeworld, once populated by the enigmatic Chozo. Can this one-woman army defeat the Space Pirates, destroy Metroid, and save the galaxy?
