The name of Samus’s ship AI companion in Metroid Dread is Adam.
Adam communicates with Samus throughout her mission on the planet ZDR, providing mission updates, tactical guidance, and explanations about the planet’s dangers. His voice is presented through computer terminals and communications systems as Samus searches for a way to escape.
The character is connected to Adam Malkovich, Samus’s former commanding officer from the Galactic Federation. In earlier Metroid chronology, Adam was a human commander who knew Samus personally. Dread’s computer voice therefore carries emotional and narrative significance beyond being a generic navigation system.
The game also uses Adam to create a major mystery. Near the end, Raven Beak is revealed to have been impersonating Adam during communications, turning familiar instructions into part of the villain’s deception. The real Adam-like presence is later associated with Quiet Robe’s X-infected consciousness. Mother Brain and Aurora are easy mix-ups: Mother Brain is a major Metroid antagonist, while Aurora Units are Federation supercomputers seen elsewhere in the series.
