Bosses are very powerful enemies which Samus Aran must kill, often because they block progression or because they guard or possess a power-up that Samus needs to complete her mission. This page is a list of bosses in the entire Metroid series.
Bosses officially designated as Mini-Bosses are marked with an asterisk (*).
