The Metal Slug arcade series turned 30 years old, and on this occasion it was announced that they will make “reboot missions” and get new content in the future.
Another Japanese series entered the 30-year-old club. Arcade shooting Metal Slug Games is celebrating its 30th anniversary today, and the SNK publishing house has prepared a nostalgic retrospective for the occasion.
Along with it came the news that they are counting on the Metal Slug series in the future as well. It has been announced “series reboot” with different projects and some new directions, but nothing concrete for now.
Traditionally, Metal Slug games for the past 30 years have been 2D side-scrolling shooters that could be played solo or cooperatively. However, in 2024, the series got its first spin-off in the form of a turn-based tactical game.
