Welcome back to our full walkthrough of Metroid Prime 2: Echoes.

After retrieving the energy in the Agon Wastes, it’s time to head to the Torvus Bog and do the same for the swamp.

Into the Torvus Bog

As you progress through the game, crossing between the Light and Dark Aether areas will become more common. Also, a lot of backtracking to and from previously visited areas will occur in this part of the walkthrough to keep things as chronological as possible.

Keep that in mind as we head into the Torvus Bog. We’ll try to use as specific directions as possible because this one will be a bit of a trek. Starting from U-Mos, take the orange hologram door in the junction in the Great Temple.

Scan Entry - Harmony Class Drone

When the path opens you’ll see a floating Harmony Class Drone; scan it for its logbook entry, then destroy it. Take the elevator down and head outdoors.

Scan Entry - Age of Anxiety

Scan lore entry

As you head forward, stop halfway across what looks like a half-pipe and look up left to find the Age of Anxiety lore logbook entry. Wow, I sure wouldn’t want to live through an age like that!

Proceed through the area until you arrive at a Dark Portal. We don’t want to go back to Dark Aether either, but let’s take it and move on.

Scan Entry - Corrupted Sentreye

Moving on through the Dark Aether until you come across some ominous lasers. There are Corrupted Sentreye; scan one for its logbook entry before destroying each one with your beam cannon. Keep moving forward until you reach a ramp that leads to a dead end.

In the room with a large claw device at the top of the room. Roll into the small elevators on either side of the dead end to reach a series of bomb slots. Be sure to activate them all with morph ball bombs until the claw is grappling the platform. Hop on because it’s time to go for a ride.

At the end of the ride, you’ll see a Light Portal, head on through it, and continue along the path, battling the odd pirate and jumping over the walls. Be sure to hit any purple crystals you see on the way with a Light Beam blast to access their benefit, be it a door or a platform to jump on.

Head forward and scan the large amber door; it’s time to officially enter the Torvus Bog.

Scan Entry - The World Warped

On the left wall, roll through the tunnel and shoot the purple crystal to open the way. Before leaving the room, look upwards and left to an alien text hologram. This is The World Warped lore. Scan it for another entry for your logbook. Now turn back around, roll back through the tunnel you came through, go on through the new door you previously accessed, and follow the path on the cliff-edge and through a red blast dooruntil you take an elevator down further into the bog.

Scan Entry - Torvus Bearerpod

After the ride down, you’ll enter into an area with Torvus Bearerpods protruding from the ground behind the elevator. Scan them and head on through the door.

Scan Entry - Shredder

Nearby will be a flock of Shredder creatures, flying enemies that explode upon contact with Samus, not to be confused with a certain enemy of the turtles. Scan ‘em, shoot ’em, and move on.

Scan Entry - Hydlings

Inside a small pool of - what we hope is - water are Hydlings. They’ll cause minor damage but aren’t a major threat. Scan them and jump up towards the red blast door in the area on a platform near the alien corpse to access a save point. Once you head back out, it's time to go underwater.

Jump in the small pool and swim around until you find a dark energy door. Watch out for the Hydlings as you go - just keep swimming, just keep swimming.

Scan Entry - Shrieker

Jump out of the water in the next room and enter a new area. In the water, a group of Shriekers will attack you; scan one of them before taking defensive measures.

At the back of the area, next to a waterfall, will be a Sentinel Crystal on a wall. Scan it, then turn around and head through the red blast door.

Inside, hug the wall as a morph ball and bomb jump across the shelves to access the next area. Continue until you come across a gate with a panel next to it. Scan it to lower the gates in the area and proceed through the light energy doors in the rooms after, continuing until a cutscene plays.

Scan Entry - Grenchler

Why does it sound like this thing is planning to steal Christmas? Anyway, scan the Grenchler walking around the area, then circle and jump around, aiming at its back to defeat it.

Scan Entry - Bloatsac

Nearby, you’ll find a Bloatsac, scan it, and use the platforms to jump over the river in the area and head on up the path, taking a bridge towards a Dark Portal. Blast it with a dark beam and walk through the portal into Dark Torvus Bog.

Scan Entry - Dark Sentinel Crystal

Head toward the centre of the bridge area, and you’ll see a Dark Sentinel Crystal on the wall just waiting to be scanned.

Scan Entry - Ingsphere Cache

Staying where you are, quickly survey the area to find an Ingsphere Cache. Scan both and head towards the nearby Bomb Slot inside a light bubble. Using it will change the bridge's direction to a new door.

Scan Entry - Dark Phlogus

Before setting off, look down into the area below to see a Dark Phlogus, scan the carnivorous planet, and head over the bridge, but not all the way. As you get to the centre, jump to a platform across the gap and head back through the portal.

Scan Entry - Dark Pirate Commando

When you arrive, a few Dark Pirate Commandos will spawn in; scan one of them before taking them on. After the fight, head towards the door you changed the bridge around to access.

Collectible - Missile Expansion

You’ll find another Missile Expansion pack before heading on through the door.

Scan Entry - Sporb

In the new area, you’ll find a Sporb attached to the wall. Scan it for its logbook entry and shoot it for good measure. Just before dropping down, roll into a ball, following the cave wall and rolling through a tunnel into a new place.

In this area, you’ll see a grapple point on the ceiling. We can’t use this yet, so fall into the area on purpose and head through the door behind you to escape. Behind the door, scan the control panel to activate the Morph Ball Cannon, jump over to it, and you’ll be shot back onto the path.

Collectible - Energy Tank

Cross the bridge and enter a dark energy door, turn into a ball, and use a bomb on the first circular pattern on the floor. Below will be another Energy Tank. You’ll have to make your way back to this corridor after collecting it.

Scan Entry - Hunter Ing

Inside the Dark Aether, you’ll find a glowing creature fluttering around. This is a Hunter Ing; scan it before destroying it with light beam blasts.

You’ll now want to climb up the tree using platforms until you reach a dark energy door, follow the path to a save point, and take a breather. Next, take the path that leads away from the tree until you hit a light energy door.

Head on through the door and roll through a tunnel of tree roots. The following room will lead into another tunnel and into a large arena. It’s time for a boss fight.

Heading back into the room that took you to this area, use the Boost Ball ability on the half pipe to reach the Dark Temple Key inside the right-hand wall of the area. You’ll now want to use the boost to reach a platform to leave the area and head back the way you came towards the large tree. Stopping at the save point on the way, head towards the portal and go back to the Light Aether.

Head through the area with the large tree and use the boost ball up the right side of the half-pipe near the door to proceed until you reach a dark energy door.

Collectible Detour

We’ll be taking a quick detour back to the starting area to gain some scan entries and collectibles that are now accessible to us.

Heading through the gate, you’ll enter the area with the bridge that changes direction. Go directly across the area until you hit the light energy door. Proceed on that route until you are on the path leading back towards the Temple Grounds.

Head through a green blast door, past the dark portal, keep going until you hit a half-pipe, boost up the left side of it, and roll through a nearby tunnel.

Suit Upgrade - Seeker Launcher

Following the tunnel, you’ll enter an arena with a large floor puzzle. Find the nearby Spinners to change the floor's layout until it matches up.

The key to solving this is to make sure the red circle is pointing towards the nearby portal. Solving this will reward you with the Seeker Launcher Suit Upgrade. Holding the missile fire button will allow it to lock onto multiple targets.

Head towards the purple blast door, using the newly acquired Seeker Launcher to lock onto the surrounding locks and destroy them to proceed.

Head on into the ship to save your game and gain your ammo and health back.

Follow the path as you did at the start of the game until you reach the fork in the road, head left, and scan the alien text door and the one following it to open the path.

Scan Entry - Dark Missile Trooper

We’re pretty much done here, it's time to head back to the Torvus Bog. Aim to get to the room with the only Morph ball cannon. From there, head through the door just across the gap from the Morph ball cannon and follow the path until you come across a hidden purple blast door on the left side of the circular area. Blast it and head on through, taking the elevator to get back into Agon Wastes. You don’t need to take this right now, but in Metroidvania games, it’s important to make backtracking paths as accessible as possible.

Back in the circular room, go into the tunnel ahead of you, blasting past a green blast door. Take the elevator down into the depths of the Torvus Bog.

You’ll now want to head back down to where you moved the floor around to change the tunnel access underwater, this time linking the blue tunnels together.

Head through the light energy door and follow the system of underwater tubes. The goal here is to activate the bomb slots along the way. Keep following the tubes, and you’ll end up in a new area with a device spewing a laser and spiky objects in the water.

Scan Entry - New Weapons

Go for a swim in the water ahead of you and use your scan visor to look around, and you’ll find the New Weapons lore entry for the logbook.

While still in the water, aim upwards at the spiky things and blast them with a dark energy blast; they’ll flip over to create new platforms. Use the nearby platforms to jump out of the water, jump over the pool, and activate a bomb slot on the other side of the area. This will open an underwater gate previously blocking access to a dark portal; activate it and head on through to the Dark Aether.

After battling the enemies attacking you in the Dark Aether, aim for the device with a laser flowing out of it and use the spinner underneath it to change its direction to the other side of the room. Now, back through the portal to the Light Aether. Jump over the pool, use the morph ball cannon, and head through the light energy door. Scanning the final lock and opening the area beneath you deep underwater.

Keep progressing through the area, working your way down, and you’ll eventually come across the room with the Gravity Boost Suit Upgrade inside. This allows you to float in the water when you hold the jump button after double jumping.

Defeat the Alpha Blogg and you’ll see a turbine at the top of the boss room slow down, use it as a platform, and head upwards through its arena. Continue heading upwards, using the Gravity Boost to lift yourself out of the water. We recommend making a pit stop at the save point next to the spinning platforms.

Back underwater, we go and head through the dark energy door, following the path into the room. Activate the bomb slot hidden underwater to unblock the dark portal. Next, head into the bomb slot in the room that’ll send you into a system of underwater tubes.
