Dotemu and Leikir Studio release a Metal Slug Tactics demo and gameplay deep dive, through the demo may only be for a limited time.
launches this year, though PC gamers can play the demo now for a limited time. Publisher Dotemu also shared an extended Metal Slugs Tactics gameplay video offering a deep dive into the upcoming turn-based tactical RPG., an interactive showcase of upcoming PC games. The event runs from June 10 to June 17, giving players a bit over a week to try it out. While some developers keep their Next Fest demos up after the event ends, this is uncommon.
Whether they intend to play the Metal Slug Tactics demo or not, fans can also check out its new gameplay deep dive. One interesting feature is how developer Leikir Studio attempts to translate Metal Slug’s running and gunning to turn-based tactics. Soldiers get a damage reduction when next to cover, but also after depleting their movement points for that turn. Cover still offers more protection than running, but cover can also be destroyed in battle.
The Metal Slug Tactics gameplay video also showcased the game’s Synch mechanic. When attacking an enemy, other operatives fire automatically if they have line of sight. Synchs are crucial to gameplay, with the video encouraging players to keep in mind when equipping and positioning their team. However, one battle won’t win the war, and players will need to consider their strategy when choosing missions. Different missions offer different rewards, such as experience points, money, or the reinforcement coins players need to revive downed soldiers.Daniel is a writer and game reviewer from central Florida.
