About
Minetroid is a Metroid-themed resource pack that gives Minecraft a broad visual makeover, including themed creatures, items, equipment and interface elements. Its content includes Ender Ridley, Chozo Artifacts, the Ing and Dark Temple Keys, alongside helpful Chozo Villagers, Bryyonian Golems, Tatori, Dachoras and Etecoons, and hostile Space Pirates, Metroids and other wildlife. Players can use Beam Weapons, Galactic Federation equipment, Luminoth technology, Space Pirate machinery and Skytown gadgets, while custom skins, armor and a pumpkin HUD overlay extend the Metroid styling to the player interface and gear. The pack also reskins menus and save stations, and a separate bonus download collects extra skins, paintings and previous textures. An extensive Matmos pack adds Metroid-inspired in-game sounds.

Security
No harmful code found
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.5.1 to 1.8.7.
We checked what is inside its files, without opening them in the game.
Why we show this: a resource pack cannot run programs, but its file can hide one. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade.
How we checked
- FilesWe download the files from Modrinth or CurseForge and look at what is inside them and what their code can do, without running them. Fixed rules tell what is harmful.5 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. None is for a recent Minecraft version, so the answer above is about all of them. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks. See each file in Releases
Privacy
Sends nothing
A resource pack has no code that can connect to the internet, so it cannot send anything about you.
AI
No sign so far that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its description, files and images and found none.
We have not read its changelogs yet.
Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
How we checked
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a substantial part of the code is AI output, when an asset is mainly AI output, or when the project or its page relies on generative AI.Not on Modrinth.
