TheRuins Entranceis the first room that players will encounter upon reaching the Chozo Ruins, and they should scan theChozo Loreentry above the door on its far side. This door leads into theMain Plaza, andMetroidfansshould navigate to the door in its back-left corner. Players should use that door to reachNursery Accessand then scan aScarabbefore preceding intoEyon Tunnel.
This tunnel is home to severalEyons, which players should scan and then shoot to force them to temporarily close. Fans can then advance through Eyon Tunnel and enter theRuined Nursery. Here, players should scan aChozo Loreentry as well as aWar Waspand aWar Wasp Hivebefore stopping by theSave Stationthat is situated above the Chozo Lore.
Once thisMetroid Prime Remasteredsavehas been made, fans are free to take the unused door in the Ruined Nursery and advance through theNorth Atrium.

Players should now enter theHive Totemand approach the Missile in the room to initiate a combat encounter with theHive Mecha. Fans are advised to make scanning thisMetroid Prime Remasteredbossa priority, and they should also take a moment to scan theRam War Waspsthat are produced by the machine. Indeed, this is the only opportunity that players will have to secure these Log Book entries.
With the entires obtained, players can focus on dispatching the Hive Mecha. To beat this boss, players should simply rotate on the platform, watching carefully for any stationary Ram War Wasps. Once such a Wasp has been located, fans should quickly destroy it with the Power Beam and repeat this process until all the insects are slain. Players should then immediately turn to the Hive Mecha, lock on to its weak spot, and fire.
Destroying one weak spot is not enough to bring down this boss, though, and fans will need to fend off more waves of Ram War Wasps and shoot at more of the Hive Mecha’s vulnerabilities before the job is done. Fortunately, none of these actions are extremely difficult to execute, and it should not take long forMetroid Prime Remasteredplayersto defeat the machine and claim their first upgrade: theMissile Launcher.
Once the Missile Launcher has been claimed, players should scan theBlast Shielddoor that is ahead, hit it with one ofMetroid Prime Remastered’s Missiles, and then continue forward to collect anEnergy Tank.

There is aMap Stationbeyond that door, and players should download the Chozo Ruins' map before continuing to theMain Plaza.
Upon entering theMain Plaza, players should head toward the door leading to theShrine Entrance. As fans approach thisdoor inMetroid Prime Remastered, they will see a Blast Shield door on their right, which they should use to reachRuined Shrine Access. TheRuined Shrineis on the other side of that hallway, and players should enter the arena and defeat the Beetles that appear.
As soon as the last Beetle has been dispatched, players will encounter thePlated Beetle, which should immediately be scanned. Fans should then simply lock on to the enemy, wait for it to charge, and then strafe to the left or right as the Plated Beetle comes toward them. Players should now be positioned to shoot at the Plated Beetle’s red weak spot, and they can collectMetroid Prime Remastered’s Morph Ballupgrade as soon as the insect has been defeated.
