What are Missile Expansions?

Increases Missile Capacity

Missile Expansion Acquired

Missile Expansions are collectibles that you can get in Viewros to increase Samus' maximum Missile Ammo Capacity by 5. This strictly applies to your Missile Launcher and doesn't affect any other weapon in the game.

To unlock the Missile Launcher, you must encounter Mackenzie for the first time in Fury Green.

Fury Green Walkthrough

Different from Shot Expansions
