Metal Slug Tactics

Metal Slug Tactics is a turn-based tactical RPG with roguelite elements that reimagines the classic Metal Slug run-and-gun series, featuring iconic characters, pixel art, and vehicles in strategic, grid-based combat where movement is key to survival and special attacks. Players assemble a squad of three from a roster of nine characters, each with unique loadouts, to fight General Morden's Rebel Army across hand-crafted maps, with progression tied to learning from failures and unlocking new skills and gear. While praised for its art, music, and strategic depth, some reviews note performance issues and a potentially divisive shift from the original's frantic action.
