Metroid Dread (Switch)

All Teleportal Locations

Add to Watchlist

Dread - Teleportals.png
This is a guide to the different Teleportals locations throughout ZDR in Metroid Dread for the Nintendo Switch. Read on to learn how many Teleportals there are, how to unlock and access each Teleportal device, and how to use these Teleportals to fast travel between different regions.

Teleportal Locations for Fast Travel

Teleportals allow you to travel across regions on the map. Each teleportal is assigned a color that pairs with another teleportal on the planet.

For most of the game, a teleportal will only warp you to its corresponding identically-colored pair. There are 7 differently-colored pairs of Teleportals in the game for a total of 14 Teleportals.

Linking all Teleportals

However, once you've discovered all of the teleportals, each teleportal can now be used to connect to every other teleportal.

This is especially useful for fast travel between regions when backtracking as you collect all of the items.
