About the game
METAL SLUG 3 is one of the most celebrated run-and-gun titles ever made, renowned for its richly detailed hand-drawn pixel art and fast, chaotic action. You blast through stages packed with enemies, giant bosses and hidden branching paths, grabbing weapons and freeing prisoners along the way. An arcade classic that remains a benchmark for the genre decades later.
Did you know?
The Metal Slug series originated on SNK's Neo Geo arcade and home system, famous for its unusually expensive but technically powerful cartridges.
