Tactical turn-based role-playing game

Metal Slug Tactics is yet another addition to the ever-popular franchise of the same name. This game offers rogue-like elements and classic action-packed RPG strategies. Players can expect traditional pixel art graphics and exciting, hand-rendered levels.

Metal Slug role-playing games have become popular with fans who enjoy shoot-’em-up environments alongside a slightly nostalgic feel. Metal Slug Tactics provides both of these elements within a single platform, making it ideal for fans of this well-known genre.

A unique sync system

One feature that has enabled Metal Slug Tactics to stand out from its counterparts involves the ability to partner up with other NPCs in order to launch powerful attacks upon the enemy. While this is indeed a single-player platform, its co-op flavor should appeal to anyone who is already familiar with Metal Slug.

Team-based PvE gameplay

Users will have the ability to gather a team of powerful characters before going into battle against formidable opponents. This feature has always been one of the core traits within the entire Metal Slug series, and once again, it is possible to gain skills when level bosses are beaten.

Combatting Donald Morden

Metal Slug Tactics is partially based on the return of Donald Morden, an iconic foe in previous iterations. After lying in wait, he has finally gathered enough strength to overthrow the world government. All that stands between Morden and total domination are the heroic Peregrine Falcons.

Classic Metal Slug gameplay

In terms of how its developers have stayed true to the original franchise, this game can be grouped together with other Metal Slug mods, such as Metal Slug Defense. Therefore, it is suitable for die-hard fans who have been looking for an additional twist, though the mechanics may feel dated to some players.
