The new video shows off the game’s spin on tactics, with long-time stars Marco, Eri, Fio, and Tarma taking literal turns obliterating the opposition. The game sees players building squads of classic Metal Slug characters, each with unique loadouts of recognizable series weapons, to take on signature villains and bosses, like the warship in the video.
When first revealed, Metal Slug Tactics was only slated to launch for Switch and PC. Today’s trailer confirms that it’s also coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
