Not one, not two... but 10 Metal Slug games are coming to Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 in a brand new collection, including a game that has never been seeon on console before! Celebrate 30 years of the series in one place
If you've never played Metal Slug before, then it's classed as a run and gun title, ie lots of firing and hoping for the best as you plough on into hordes of enemies. It's a Neo Geo classic
For the first time even on consoles, you can play the Metal Slug Location Test Version. That's the first time in 30 years that anyone has been able to play this version, and you can play it alongside 9 other games from the series.
The collection includes:
- Metal Slug 1
- Metal Slug 2
- Metal Slug 3
- Metal Slug 4
- Metal Slug 5
- Metal Slug 6
- Metal Slug X
- Metal Slug 7
- Metal Slug Advance
- Metal Slug Location Test Version
These are games that, while fun, you don't need a degree in rocket science to play. You will, however, need quick reflexes and to be quick on your fire button, because they're not for the faint of heart - they're tough cookies to crack! They ooze that arcade hall feel when you're playing them, and they're super fun to play. This collection will keep you going for a long time, and it's a great way to play the games if you've never owned a NEO GEO console before.
There are new features like online Co-Op and a gallery mode where you can learn more about the games too. That online Co-Op is going to make this a must-have game, in my opinion, because these games are designed to be played with friends around you.
The Metal Slug Ultimate Collection drops next year - keep your eyes peeled here for more information as and when it arrives!
