Hive Tunnel

From Metroid Wiki


The Hive Tunnel is a room in the Temple Grounds. The room connects the Hive Chamber A to the Command Chamber. The room is home to 5 Federation Marine corpses, one of which is tied up in Luminoth Webbing, while the rest are dangling from the ceiling. There are also thirteen total Worker Splinters found across the tunnel that, despite apparently having collected and fed on the nearby corpses, are non-hostile and leave Samus untouched as she walks through. After breaking the Luminoth Webbing by hitting the green bulb in the center, Samus can walk through the door to the Command Chamber.
