The title is short for Another Metroid 2 Remake, and this game is an unofficial fan-made metroidvania action platformer produced by Milton Guasti, under the pseudonym Doctorm64, as an enhanced version of Metroid II: Return of Samus. (1991). This game was released August 6, 2016.

The game follows Samus Aran, who aims to eradicate the parasitic Metroids from their home planet SR388. It includes several new features, including redone graphics and music, a map system, and new areas and minibosses. The controls were changed to be less "floaty", in line with the gameplay of later titles in the series. Video game journalists appreciated the game, frequently calling it impressive and commenting on the improved visuals compared to those of the original Metroid II, although one thought the conditions required to win battles against Metroids were too specific considering how often they occur. The game was nominated for The Game Awards 2016, but was later removed from the nominations page without notice.
