In this guide, I’ll show you the exact steps on how to solve the Base Camp Puzzle in Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, released on 4 December 2025.
How to solve the Base Camp Door Puzzle
To unlock the Base Camp door, begin by scanning the door to restore its power. The scan will reveal that the beam sensor on your side is malfunctioning, while the sensor on the opposite side is still operational. Since the broken sensor cannot receive power directly, you’ll need to route the energy manually.

Look just above the door for a small circular opening in the wall and fire a Charged Beam through it.

Once the beam is inside, use the appropriate button to carefully control and guide its path, steering it through the room until it reaches the working sensor on the other side.

When the beam successfully activates the sensor, the Base Camp door will unlock, allowing you to proceed.
