| Location | X-Ray Scope Room, Brinstar |
| Effect | Reveal the concealed, destroy game |
X-Ray Scope is used to scan walls and reveal secrets, such as hidden items or the invisible surfaces in the Blue Brinstar Boulder Room. The technical details for this are explained in this video.
When major glitches are permitted, X-Ray Scope is above and beyond the most powerful tool that can be used for completing the game due to its ability to, among many other things, modify memory values.
