Seal Sphere

The Seal Sphere is an artifact created to imprison the malevolent being known as Gorea. The Seal Sphere was the last hope of the Alimbics, as all previous attempts to defeat Gorea had been turned against the Alimbics by the monster. The Seal Sphere was used to imprison Gorea by ensnaring its psychic powers and immobilizing it. During the events of Metroid Prime Hunters, the Seal Sphere is opened by Samus Aran's rival Bounty Hunters (Kanden, Weavel, Spire, Sylux, Noxus, and Trace) because they have been deceived into believing that it holds the secret to ultimate power.

Once free, Gorea latches onto the Seal Sphere and begins to draw energy from it. Gorea then dispatches the other Hunters, assimilates their Affinity Weapons, and faces Samus in combat. During this battle, the Seal Sphere is Gorea's only weak point. After Samus successfully destroys its arms, Gorea begins to depend on the Seal Sphere, which Samus must target. During the second phase of the battle, Gorea continues to draw all remaining energy from it, and it is vulnerable to the Omega Cannon. Gorea is defeated and the Seal Sphere is destroyed simultaneously by Samus.

Trivia

• There are two confirmed Seal Spheres in the game, the one attached to Gorea, and one that immobilized Gorea within the Oubliette, which the hunters destroy.
• The fact that the Seal Sphere attached to Gorea has the scan title Gorea Seal Sphere suggests that the creature may have gained control of the device during its imprisonment.
