Appearances

Metroid Prime

In Metroid Prime, the "Phazon Beam" makes a brief appearance in the second phase of the Metroid Prime. When Samus steps into pools of Phazon that the creature creates, she enters "Hyper-mode" and can damage the creature with the Phazon Beam.

Metroid Prime 2: Echoes

Although Hypermode and the Phazon Beam does not return in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, a form of Phazon-energized Charge Shot is used to defeat Dark Samus in Samus's last fight against it. When Dark Samus releases shots of phazon energy, Samus is able to draw them in by charging her arm cannon, energizing her next Charge shot with Phazon. For the time-being while she keeps from firing the Phazon-infused shot, her arm cannon becomes the Phazon Cannon. The charged shot is as deep blue as Phazon itself, with blue radiation flowing out of the arm cannon. The Phazon Cannon's single shot is powerful enough to penetrate through Dark Samus's energy shield, which is described as impermeable to any weapon except that of Phazon energy.

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption

The Hyper Beam plays a major role in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. After Dark Samus corrupts Samus and the other hunters, Samus acquires the PED Suit, allowing her to enter Hypermode and transform her Power Beam into the Hyper Beam. She can fire ordinary shots or charge the beam to fire a continuous stream of energy. A fully charged Hyper Charge Beam is the most powerful weapon in game, as it drains more Phazon energy than a Hyper Missile. While firing, a Phazon Meter appears and Hypermode will end if Samus empties the bar. However, if she gets corrupted and does not expel the Phazon quickly enough, she will be fully corrupted and it will be game over. A full Energy Tank is depleted to start Hypermode.
