Multiplayer Screen

Depending on the Hunter you choose, the Multiplayer Mode display screen will be different. However, the basics will be the same as the Adventure Mode (pages 20- 21). Hold START to check the current score.

The game does not pause while you are viewing the current score.

The screenshot on the right is the Multiplayer Mode display screen for Samus.

Objective Completion Gauge

Energy Gauge

When your character receives damage, the gauge will be reduced. If the Energy Gauge reaches zero, your character is defeated. Your Energy Gauge can reach a maximum of 199 energy units.

RANK

Displays your current game ranking.

Remaining Time

Multiplayer Basic Rules

Battle other players to complete the selected objectives. Watch your Energy Gauge: once the gauge goes down to zero, you’re defeated. Press the L Button (or, if you’re left-handed, press the R Button) to respawn your character in a different spot.

Action Controls

Basic controls are the same as in Adventure Mode. Although you cannot switch visors or view the world map, all other commands are available (pages 22-29). Other characters can use Alt- Forms by touching the Alt-Form icon. Each character has its own unique movement and attack methods, so try them all!

The Results Screen

When time expires or the game requirements are
met, the battle ends. Each player’s rank appears
on the Results screen. Select PLAY AGAIN to start
the next game or QUIT to exit Multiplayer mode.
