Gamma Metroids are Metroids which have hatched from their familiar infant eggs, and gone through the alpha stage of their life. Gamma Metroids are the second in a series of Metroid evolution including Alpha Metroids, Gamma Metroids Zeta Metroids and [[Omega Metroid]]s.
'''Gamma Metroids''' are [[Metroid (species)|Metroids]] which have grown past their [[Alpha Metroid]] form. They are followed by [[Zeta Metroid|Zeta Metroids]], [[Omega Metroid|Omega Metroids]], and, if the Metroid has the proper genetic coding, [[Queen Metroid|Queen Metroids]].

Gamma Metroids are Metroids which have grown past their Alpha Metroid form. They are followed by Zeta Metroids, Omega Metroids, and, if the Metroid has the proper genetic coding, Queen Metroids.

Samus encounters sixteen Gamma Metroids while on her mission to exterminate the Metroids on SR388. She can defeat them by firing ten Missiles at their head or back.

In Metroid Fusion, aboard the B.S.L research station, Samus finds a single Gamma Metroid in a stasis tank in the Restricted Laboratory of the Restricted Zone. Samus does not battle this Metroid, as it appears incapacitated. It is destroyed along with the rest of the Restricted Laboratory after an SA-X attacks Metroids in the area.
