Metroid Desolation
About this entry
Metroid: Desolation is a highly regarded ROM hack of Metroid: Zero Mission for the Game Boy Advance, developed by jasinchen and released in 2023. The hack completely redesigns the game with new levels, areas, bosses, power-ups, and music. It emphasizes a more non-linear, open-ended exploration experience compared to the original game. It also includes quality-of-life features like the ability to skip cutscenes and removed escape sequences (except for the finale).
