Metal Slug Tactics is Out Now

As a seasoned gamer with years of tactical RPG and Metal Slug series under my belt, I must say that the release of Metal Slug Tactics has sent a thrill down my spine. The fusion of turn-based strategy with the iconic side-scrolling shoot ’em up franchise is an innovative twist that I’ve been eagerly anticipating since its announcement three years ago.


After a wait of over three years since its initial unveiling, Leikir Studio’s “Metal Slug Tactics” is now available on Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PS4, PS5, PC, and Nintendo Switch. Subscribers to Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass can already play it. Take a look at the launch trailer below.

In the vein of SNK’s side-scrolling shoot ’em up series, Metal Slug Tactics converts its action into a strategic turn-based role-playing game. Players can choose from various characters for their teams, including the P.F. Squad and the newly unveiled Ikari Warriors. When allies are placed close to one another, they can perform Sync attacks; however, it’s also essential to adjust your team’s positions and capitalize on unique abilities.

As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but notice the captivating resemblance between “Metal Slug Tactics” and rogue-like games. In this strategic adventure, you enhance your weapons and abilities at outposts scattered across the campaign. However, when your team meets its demise, it’s a return to square one. If you’re intrigued, head over to Metacritic to see what professional critics have to say about this title. Currently, the PC version boasts a 78 Metascore based on 22 reviews.
