A fast-paced version of the classic shooter with revamped graphics
The Metal Slug: Awakening Android app is a new chapter in the Metal Slug franchise that brings the classic arcade game experience to mobile devices. And it does so with exquisite, completely renewed 2D graphics that respect the original spirit of the saga.
A modernized classic for smartphones
Tencent Games and SNK teamed up to offer us an original and completely overhauled version of the mythical arcade game of the 90s. As always, our mission is to help our favorite soldiers shoot hundreds of enemies, dodge attacks, and free prisoners as we advance through hostile territory.
This game's enhanced visuals pay homage to its retro roots and introduce a fresh and captivating art style.
The gameplay mechanics of Metal Slug: Awakening APK are those we already know from other similar games: side-scrolling, running, jumping, and shooting. The controls have been perfectly adapted to smartphone devices, allowing us to fight enemies and bosses intuitively with a variety of weapons. In addition, we will be able to play with four different characters (who will be familiar to franchise fans). And there is no shortage of power-ups and special weapons.
In short, you can download Metal Slug: Awakening for free and take a trip back in time while you leave behind the saga's characteristic pixel art graphics. However, the renovation has been fantastic, and its gameplay is superb. All in all, it is an outstanding game with a nostalgic touch that pays a heartfelt tribute to the old school. Unfortunately, it takes up a lot of space in the device's storage.
