Metal Slug Tactics

About the game

Metal Slug Tactics takes the run-and-gun METAL SLUG series and turns it into a tactical RPG with roguelite structure. General Donald Morden has spent years hiding in a country opposed to the World Government, quietly building an army, and has now staged a coup. The Peregrine Falcons Squad has to fight through the Rebel Army's lines and stop him before the war spreads. You pick a team from 9 well-known characters from the series, choose loadouts from 36 weapons and 176 weapon mods, and chain attacks with the SYNC mechanic for big damage. When things go wrong you can call in support such as artillery, airstrikes or the METAL SLUG tank itself. The campaign spans 110 hand-crafted maps and 20 mission types, ending in fights against iconic bosses. Runs will fail often, but experience earned in battle unlocks new weapons and perks for later attempts. The pixel art is a tribute to the originals, and the soundtrack is by Tee Lopes.
