Metal Slug Tactics is a turn-based strategy game focusing on battles between squads. The project is a side game in relation to SNK's arcade series and allows to command the characters known from the shooter installments of the brand.
Metal Slug Tactics is a tactical battle game with turn-based combat system. The project was developed by French Leikir Studio, whose credits include Isbarah and Wondershot. SNK and DotEmu helped with the development.
According to the title, the game is a spin-off of the classic cycle of arcade shooters. The new incarnation of the brand allows us to fight battles from an isometric perspective. During the game we control a squad consisting of characters well known to fans of the brand, such as Marco, Eri, Fio or Tarma.
Despite the change of genre and camera, the project retains the specific visual style of the best installments of the series. Additional attraction is the music whose author is Tee Lopes, the composer of soundtracks for such games as Sonic Mania, League of Legends or Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge.

Game Ratings for Metal Slug Tactics Video Game.
GameSpot: 7 / 10 by Justin Koreis
Metal Slug is a great fit as a turned-based strategy game, but overly luck-dependent roguelike elements and some outdated ideas for how to define enemies slow its march to war.
TheSixthAxis: 9 / 10 by Dominic Leighton
I love what Dotemu and Leikir Studios have achieved with Metal Slug Tactics. The unlikeliest pivot for a franchise aside, it mixes interesting tactical action, Roguelike progression and brilliant visuals into an indie title that nails the balance between nostalgia and modernity.
Impulsegamer: 4 / 5 by Richard Banks
Still, just like the Metal Slug franchise in general, Tactics is ultimately stacked with a silly joy that's hard to deny. Getting to see fan favourites together again will give long-term fans plenty of reason to pick this up, and fans of difficult tactical titles will have enough to get their teeth stuck into. Some things may work better than others, but there's always room for a good strategy game, and Metal Slug Tactics is easily up there with the best in recent memory.
