The latest addition to the Metal Slug franchise has arrived. Get ready for the tactical RPG that is Metal Slug Tactics which offers that roguelite thrill and combines it with the iconic run'n'gun action experience of the original series. It's priced at $24.99 and available for the PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and the Nintendo Switch.

Metal Slug Tactics pays homage to an all-time classic while offering its own take. In particular, it introduces tactical grid-based strategic gameplay. It's an experience that's sure to be love not just by newcomers but even veterans to the series.

New Characters

As part of the release, developer Leikir Studio has released a launch trailer which introduces the last two characters of the roster. There's Nadia Cassel who makes her official debut in the game. This should be exciting news to long-time fans considering that she had only been appearing as a teammate in several of the titles in the series. Known for her slick robotics and electro-mines, Nadia packs that hard punch to enemies she encounters.

Joining Nadia on the roster is Trevor Spacey. He's also been part of the Metal Slug titles but as comedic relief. However, for this new game he's bringing with him a rather deadly twist. That's because Trevor has managed to tap into the power of mind control which is backed up with powerful ninja skills.

Metal Slug Tactics offers a fresh perspective on the iconic battles that the Metal Slug series is known for. Players get to lead their squad to victory by using strategic guile and superior firepower. The game offers a perfect mix of tactical depth and classic action. For each encounter, players need to release those special attacks and tilt the scales in their favor. As they accumulate experience after each battle, they get to unlock new weapons, or even bonus perks, which can help in upgrading the firepower and tactical skills of the team.

What are you waiting for? Assemble the team and rewrite the rules in this modern tribute to a cult classic. Get Metal Slug Tactics for the PC via Steam now. As part of the introductory offer, it’s available at 10% off.
