Event Jingle



The Event Jingle is a short tune used in all three games in the Prime Series, and once in Metroid: Samus Returns.

This jingle plays when removing a Missile Door Lock (Metroid Prime) or upon successful completion of a puzzle, such as defeating the Plated Beetle, laying a Bomb at Flaahgra's base, or the Magmoor Workstation Energy Tank puzzle. A variation plays in Metroid Prime Hunters when a Blast Shield is opened or a puzzle is completed. A shorter flourish is also heard every time Samus removes a Force Field. In Samus Returns, it plays in a cutscene after Samus kills the first Alpha Metroid. When she collects its DNA, a short scene plays of the Surface's Chozo Seal coming online; the Event Jingle plays during it.

The name "Event Jingle" originates from the internal files of Samus Returns. Unlike a lot of Prime themes, it is not included on the Metroid Prime & Fusion Original Soundtracks.
