Bioweapon Storage is a room in Hanubia. It appears in Metroid Dread.
Description[]
This room is located in the center of the Hanubia facility. It contains multiple stasis pods mounted on the walls and extending into the background, suggesting there are even more specimens. The creatures include at least two Takumaku, as well as an Armadigger, Batalloon, Depthorn, Gooplot and Nailong. One of the stasis pods is on its side on the ground, suggesting it fell over after being disturbed by something. A large cable under the Nailong's stasis pod runs along the floor and under the tipped-over pod. Above the ground is a ceiling consisting of Bomb Blocks. Above that is a platform, and this is itself underneath another ceiling of Power Bomb Blocks.
During Samus Aran's exploration of Hanubia, she tentatively steps into this room and examines the stasis pods. The one on its side contains a Takumaku, which breaks out after being agitated by Samus's presence. It rushes at Samus, but is Melee Countered. Suddenly, Samus's left hand flares up with a pink aura and her fingers twitch into a clawing position. Unsure of what is happening, Samus stares at the creature as it assesses what is going on. As the urge to siphon its energy intensifies, Samus instead finishes it off with a beam shot. She then examines her hand before standing still. While this happens, Raven Beak observes the scene remotely. Since the Takumaku did not release an X Parasite upon death, it would seem that none of the specimens kept in stasis here were infected by the X upon their release.
Once Samus regains Power Bombs, she can destroy the ceiling in this room and use an alternate exit into the "facility exterior". By running into it with her Speed Booster from here, she can acquire a Power Bomb Tank via a Shinespark.
Samus passes through this room one final time during the escape sequence; during this, parts of it are on fire or exploding and embers are emenating from the floor. The doors to the facility exterior have been permanently locked, forcing Samus to re-enter the E.M.M.I. Zone and continue from there. The room becomes inhabited by a swarm of Yojimbee, a Yampa and a Dredhed in a final, futile attempt by the X to stop Samus from leaving ZDR before it explodes. Once Samus leaves, it is possible to return to this room since the E.M.M.I. Zone Door does not lock, although doing so is rather pointless.
