Nice sprites and the tactical has some new ideas. Cautiously optimistic on this one.

Watching the guy play some Slug music on guitar is pretty great.

I think this is the first time we've seen the Mayan Jungle levels and some new enemies like the natives with the huge masks.

I'm still excited.

A new video just dropped. Pretty cool segments with old snk devs, can't wait for this game to come out

How crazy is that only 3 members from the old team members that worked on the first three Metal Slugs are still working at SNK. Good to see them doing well :)

Considering the last of the three MS games came out 24 years ago, that's not all that crazy really.

Just knowing/realizing that that much time has passed since then is what's really crazy.

It's crazy they still have 3. Barely the same company.

Are you talking about Tactics or Attack?

I wouldn't bet my money on it as Apple is in a transition phase between Intel and Apple Silicon and developers are in kind of a rough spot.
While new Macs support Intel apps via Rosetta 2 it might still yield problems.
It could be a while before we start seeing new games being released again on macOS unfortunately.
Pretty spot on

I see this is set to be released on November 5th. It's been looking good enough I'll probably snag it for the PS4.

Clark Still: Originally hailing from the Ikari Warriors series and previously playable in Metal Slug 6, Clark’s immense strength and wrestling experience allows this tanklike ally to relocate enemies on the map and dish out wide-reaching, status-inflicting damage.

Ralf Jones: Also returning for battle from the Ikari Warriors series and Metal Slug 6, Ralf is a master of short-range combat, packing devastating punches and the ability to charge at enemies head-on like a raging bull.

Leona Heidern: A newer addition to the Ikari Warriors, Leona is a revered fighter capable of replacing fallen enemies with decoy allies; she can distract and overwhelm enemy forces in her distinct approach to dominating the combat zone.

Dotemu also confirmed a physical release for Metal Slug Tactics (details to come), as well as an original soundtrack composed in full by Tee Lopes (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge, Sonic Mania, Streets of Rage 4’s Mr. X Nightmare DLC), with a physical vinyl release through Kid Katana Records.

Yeah, I'll hop on that rage train. Why the hell is it not out until April of next year? That's supposing it would even ship at that target date. Y'know, LRG being awesome at hitting shipping dates, and all.

Meh, digital it is then.
