Kraid returns in both ''[[Metroid: Zero Mission]]'' and ''[[Super Metroid]]'' in a much larger, two-screen tall form. Kraid can spew rocks from his mouth and fires giant claws from the three holes on his belly, which act as platforms. Kraid can also throw his sharp claws from his fingertips. Samus defeats him by firing [[Missile]]s, [[Super Missile]]s, or blasts from the [[Charge Beam]] directly into his mouth. | Kraid returns in both ''[[Metroid: Zero Mission]]'' and ''[[Super Metroid]]'' in a much larger, two-screen tall form.

Kraid was planned to be in the original ''[[Metroid Prime (game)|Metroid Prime]]'' in his section of the [[Phazon Mines]] called "Meta Kraid." He was shown with blue Phazon veins running up his abdomen and a metal guard on his head. However, due to time restraints, he never made it into the final version of the game.<ref>{{Cite person| quote= The level that he was to be included in was well underway to being designed. There just was not enough development time remaining to fully implement all aspects of the scenario that were needed to pull off a highly polished/fun gaming experience... It was [ultimately] decided that Kraid was not imperative enough to the Metroid Prime project to run the risk of pushing up the release date to fit him in| name= Gene Kohler| url= http://www.gen-n.net/dyk/002.shtml| title= Did You Know?}}</ref> | |||

Kraid also appears in the [[Metroid Manga]]. Samus, at first, has a considerable amount of trouble defeating the powerful Kraid. Samus manages to defeat Kraid with the help of the [[Morph Ball Bomb]] upgrade supplied by [[Adam Malkovich]].
