Area 8 Exploration

Walkthrough: Begin the final area of your mission by following the narrow path as you defeat oncoming enemies. Screw Attack into the tall room, which will have a Save Station at the end. In the following room from there, jump over the waters to reach a door at the end. As you do, you'll pass an Energy Tank. In the ensuing room will be a Teleportation Statue. Pass by the Missile Expansion and Aeion Recharge Station to reach the next room. Jump over the next set of pools of water, making it to the left where you'll quickly go around and then head back to the right on the next floor. You'll find another Missile Expansion in one of the rooms you come to.

Continue down the path and you'll come to the main room of Area 8, one as big and open as any other beforehand. Space Jump into the hole in the ceiling to find the Energy Recharge and Ammo Recharge Stations. There are also three different Missile Expansion, one Super Missile Expansion, and one Power Bomb Tank you can also find in the main room.

Missile Expansion #1: In the room just before the main room, head to the two breakable blocks. Stand on one of them as it breaks through, and as you fall, use your Screw Attack in order to break through the wall on the right side of the tunnel to reach the Expansion.

Missile Expansion #2: In the main room, go to the left wall and Space Jump to find the Expansion.

Missile Expansion #3: head to the Ammo Recharge Station in the main room and stand in the left corner. Use your Screw Attack without moving an inch, allow you to avoid the red crystals. Quickly grab the ledge you come to, and then Spider Ball to the ceiling. Drop to the right from there in order to find the weak spot that brings you to the Expansion.

Missile Expansion #4: As you head upward to next door found in the main room, go to the left of the red orb and destroy it by using your Grapple Beam. Enter the are from the right to then get the Expansion.

Super Missile Expansion: At the end of the Morph Ball Maze is the Super Missile Expansion.

Energy Tank: In the room with yellow waters, Screw Attack through the ceiling and roll to the top. From there, use your Phase Drift to make it past the breakable floors straight to the Energy Tank.

Power Bomb Tank: In the main room, go to the right wall and Space Jump. Use you Power Bomb to break the weak spots, and then use your Lightning Armor to make it past the flora. Roll through into the next area as you activate your Phase Drift, making it past the breakable floors to reach the Tank.
