The modification consists of various packs that transform Breath of the Wild in a Metroid experience, including sound effects, new menu sounds, background music composed by Nintendo and fans from the Metroid saga, Samus Aran outfits, a new glider, and even Samus Aran’s gunship.
The gunship is optional and comes with its own sounds ripped from the Metroid Prime Trilogy and 2010’s Metroid: Other M.
As with a lot of modifications, these BotW Metroid packs basically replace existing Link assets in Breath of the Wild with modified Samus Aran models from various various titles in which Samus makes an appearance, including Other M, Super Smash Bros. and Zero Mission.
The main Samus Aran modification for Breath of the Wild can be downloaded here. The impressive soundtrack pack, including music from basically all Metroid installments, can be downloaded here.
The optional Gunship skin mod can be downloaded from here.
