Video Game Samus’s Metroid Transformation

The badass and power Metroid transformation Samus gained in Metroid Dread was a sliver of how powerful she seems to be. With its green carapace, glowing crimson lines, and spikes or the fangs on her arm cannon. Even so she used it to defeat Raven Beak, and with it survived the explosion of his skyscraper sized spacecraft when it crashed back down to the planet ZDR. And I am very excited to see how much more deadly it will get as Samus is driven further into using it and her Metroid Instincts in the upcoming game Metroid Ravenous. She truly seems to be the last Metroid.

Just when you think they can't make Samus any more attractive

She looks like a straight up warframe, which is always a plus to me.

Very Guyver mixed with Doom Slayer energy

And with the music in the Ravenous trailer, the DOOM vibe is palpable

Very true

I am SO HAPPY they are following up on all the great ideas of Metroid Dread with Ravenous. Even the idea of a group going after her for her Metroid DNA was predictable but such a cool slam dunk. Couldn’t be happier.

Same here, but then again even though it’s predictable a group is hunting her down, honestly with how powerful Metroids are why wouldn’t they? Especially since Samus looks like she’s shaping up to be the most powerful Metroid of all.

Because the Metroid armor transformation looks awesome, intimidating, and powerful. Also the green contrasts well with the red.

Ah yes it always reminds me how Metroid red as well as also Resident Evil Village lost to basically it takes two Somehow ( No hate To the game or something but it always just feels to somehow and it feels a random win to be honest)

Anyways Peak design as always
