Trivia
- Metroid Dread was the impetus for the creation of The Screwy Let's Play, as its announcement during Nintendo's E3 Direct presentation on the same day Super Metroid won a Patreon poll to be the next Tuesday stream on the channel led Rick to expand the Super Metroid LP into a Franchise Play covering the entire core series, leading up to the release of Dread.
- Metroid Dread is the only LP in The Screwy Let's Play to feature a live-action intro, which doubles as an episode of A Brief History covering the entire Metroid franchise up to that point. This was later uploaded as a standalone episode separate from the Dread LP, and added to the beginning of the playlist for The Screwy Let's Play.
