Publisher DotEmu and developer Leikir Studio have announced Metal Slug Tactics will launch day one for Xbox Game Pass, bringing their long-awaited spinoff to Xbox subscribers.
The tactical strategy spinoff will launch day one for Xbox Game Pass on November 5th worldwide alongside its main release for Windows PC (via Steam), Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, PS4, and PS5.
A new nigh-twenty minute long gameplay trailer was also released showing off the main characters in battle:
- Clark Still: Originally hailing from the Ikari Warriors series and previously playable in Metal Slug 6, Clark’s immense strength and wrestling experience allows this tanklike ally to relocate enemies on the map and dish out wide-reaching, status-inflicting damage.
- Ralf Jones: Also returning for battle from the Ikari Warriors series and Metal Slug 6, Ralf is a master of short-range combat, packing devastating punches and the ability to charge at enemies head-on like a raging bull.
- Leona Heidern: A newer addition to the Ikari Warriors, Leona is a revered fighter capable of replacing fallen enemies with decoy allies; she can distract and overwhelm enemy forces in her distinct approach to dominating the combat zone.
Here’s the new gameplay preview:
