MODs[1] are items in Metroid Prime: Federation Force. They can be collected by the Federation Force from the environments, much like the power-ups that Samus Aran collects in the main Metroid games. However, MODs have the advantage of being used to customize the Mech to the soldier's choice, allowing them to define their role on the team as a healer or a warrior, or a "wizard". Samus's items are instantly equipped, and with the exception of Super Metroid, none of the Metroid games allow for customization of items. MODs can upgrade health or damage and grant other benefits, such as Freeze Shots lasting longer on enemies, or enemies exploding after being ignited. When collected, a MOD's benefit is kept secret until the end of a level, where a list of MODs is displayed and customization is enabled.[2] Some MODs are "unbreakable", such as Lone Wolf, while others are consumed after one use, such as Auto-Revive. MODs can also be broken by quitting missions. Some MODs have three levels of increasing benefits.

- About MODs
- "You can receive up to three MOD slots as you progress in Campaign Mode. MODs can be picked up during missions and enhance your Mech in a variety of ways when equipped. If your Mech's energy level is depleted or if you exit in the middle of a mission, there is a chance that one of your equipped MODs will be broken. Broken MODs can no longer be used."
