METAL SLUG X

METAL SLUG X is a fast-paced 2D run-and-gun shooter that reworks METAL SLUG 2 with new weapons, redesigned enemy placements, rebalanced bosses, and additional gameplay surprises. Fight through six action-packed missions as Marco, Tarma, Eri, or Fio, blasting enemy soldiers, vehicles, and bizarre creatures while rescuing prisoners and collecting power-ups. New weapons such as the Iron Lizard and Drop Shot expand your arsenal, while unusual transformations and heavily rearranged encounters make familiar stages feel substantially different from the original game.
