The Story

Metroid Fusion was the most narrative and linear Metroid, with Samus nearly defenseless after X infection and hunted by SA-X, a full-power copy of herself. The horror atmosphere was oppressive: knowing SA-X could appear anytime created tension no Metroid had achieved. BSL Station was a biological horror labyrinth. Connected to Metroid Prime via link cable.
