Dotemu and Leikir Studio have announced that strategy RPG Metal Slug Tactics will launch for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam on 5 November 2024.

Metal Slug Tactics offers a fresh perspective on the iconic battles of the Metal Slug series. This is the first time that the side-scrolling action game will be a tactical strategy game similar to Final Fantasy Tactics and Fire Emblem.

You can accumulate experience after each battle to unlock new weapons or bonus perks to upgrade your team’s firepower and tactical skills, as well as choose between iconic brothers-in-arms from across the Metal Slug series and create the perfect team to stop Morden’s devious plans. There are 110 hand-crafted maps, 20 different mission types, 36 different weapons and 176 weapon mods, as well as 36 loadouts and combos to outsmart your enemies.
