Metroid Prime 4: Beyond

This page contains notes for the game Metroid Prime 4: Beyond.

NPC Internal Names#

Each of the five main Galactic Federation NPCs has a unique internal name different from their actual in-game name, likely due to their names not being finalized during the early stages of development (which is supported by how the internal names for Samus and Sylux match their in-game names). The following table is sorted by each character's internal name:

Internal Name	In-Game Name
Engineer	Myles MacKenzie
Heavy	VUE-995
Junior	Nora Armstrong
Senior	Ezra Duke
Sniper	Reger Tokabi

Location IDs and Internal Names#

Nearly every location in the game has an internal ID assigned to it, with each ID consisting of four number prefixed by the initials of the location's "parent" zone (for example, "FG_3040" is the internal ID for Base Camp, which has Fury Green as its "parent" zone). Some of the internal names are fairly close to the final game's names, while others are notably different. Note that the actual pak names do not have proper capitalization or spacing (continuing with the previous example, the location named "Base Camp" has its pak name formatted as "baseCamp"); for comparison's sake the internal names have been adjusted to match the in-game location names' formatting.
