- Engage in strategic turn-based combat
- Experience nostalgic pixel art graphics
- Accessible with Mega or Ultimate Fan memberships
Ah, Metal Slug - the ultimate throwback to carefree button-mashing arcade days. While the series is famous for its explosive shoot 'em up action, it makes a bold return with a tactical twist in Metal Slug Tactics.
Combat revolves around tactical positioning, where you strategically place your units on a grid to maximize damage. This turn-based delight brings back Marco, Tarma, Fio, and Eri in a nostalgic yet modern package, now available on mobile through Crunchyroll Game Vault.
The tactical RPG shifts from its classic 2D run-and-gun format to a more strategic experience, featuring chainable abilities and terrain advantages. As you outflank enemies and execute synchronized attacks, you'll need quick thinking and adaptability to prove your strategic skills.

Your squad can be upgraded and equipped with customized gear and loadouts for maximum impact, all showcased through retro pixel-art visuals that honor the original series.
Now available on mobile, you can play it exclusively through Crunchyroll Game Vault with no ads or in-app purchases. Access requires a Mega or Ultimate Fan membership, but with its expanding collection of RPGs, narrative adventures, and diverse titles, it's definitely worth exploring.
As someone who recently became hooked on Shogun Showdown, I can attest that this alone might justify the subscription. If you're still unsure, check out the embedded clip above to see the game's atmosphere and visual style in action.
