It is the third to last game on the [[Metroid (series)|chronological timeline]]. Events in this game follow those after ''[[Super Metroid]]'' and precede those of ''[[Metroid Fusion]]''. This game is the first ''Metroid'' installment to ever have a voice actor speak dialogue as Samus Aran. Rather than using [[Jennifer Hale]] from the ''[[Metroid Prime (series)|Metroid Prime]]'' series, who only voiced Samus by making grunting noises after an impact from an enemy and the death scream, the game uses [[Jessica Martin]] to give Samus her first true speaking role. | ||

The story begins with Samus reminiscing about her [[Super Metroid|previous mission]], particularly her confrontation on [[Zebes]] with the mechanical monstrosity [[Mother Brain]].<ref>{{cite|A dream—I had been reliving the tragic moments of my recent past.

The [[Brug Mass]] is engaged shortly thereafter, and upon its defeat, Adam allows Samus to offer the platoon aid under the stipulation that she follow his orders. The platoon is then briefed, and exploration of the facility begins. | ||
