The Grapple Beam is an upgrade in Metroid Prime Remastered that players will find in the Phazon Mines' Storage Depot B. It allows Samus to attach to Grapple Points and swing across heretofore uncrossable gaps, and while the Grapple Beam does not play a huge role in reaching the next upgrade, it is still very important. This guide is here to outline a route to that next upgrade, and it will help players that may be lost after collecting the Grapple Beam in Metroid Prime Remastered.
Metroid Prime Remastered: After Grapple Beam Walkthrough
With the Grapple Beam in hand, players should leave Storage Depot B in order to reenter Ore Processing. Fans should then direct their attention to the ceiling and use the Grapple Point to swing across to a Wave Beam door. Waste Disposal on the other side of that door, and Metroid Prime Remastered players should assume Morph Ball form near the slot in this room to enter a simple Morph Ball maze.
After passing through that maze, fans will find themselves back in the Phazon Mines' Main Quarry, and they should stop by the Save Station that is at the top of a short Spider Ball Track. Players should then make their way to the Tallon Overworld South elevator, ride it, and navigate to the Great Tree Hall.
Tallon Overworld
There is a Spinner in the Great Tree Hall that players can reach by climbing the room's lowest platforms, and using Metroid Prime Remastered's Boost Ball ability within it will open a nearby gate. Fans will then be free to continue their ascent, and they should set their sights on a Spider Ball Track that spirals around a pole. Players should now work their way up that track, and there is a point where they will need to release their attachment in order to fall to another portion of the track.
At the top of the spiraling Spider Ball Track, players should pass through the Ice Beam door and use a Power Bomb in Metroid Prime Remastered to clear the weakened rocks in the Life Grove Tunnel. This action will allow fans to access a Morph Ball section, which begins with a large half-pipe. Here, fans should use Boost Ball to get on top of the rock formation that creates the ramp and then use a Morph Ball Bomb to fall onto a Missile Expansion.
With that collectible obtained, players should use Boost Ball once again to exit the half-pipe to the right. This will ultimately lead Metroid fans to the Life Grove, and it is in this room that they will obtain their next upgrade: the X-Ray Visor.
Metroid Prime Remastered is available on the Nintendo Switch.
