A Magnificent Tribute to a Gaming Legend
Nearly thirty years after the birth of the cult franchise, Metal Slug Tactics – Deluxe Edition (Nintendo Switch, PS4, and PS5) proudly celebrates the legendary legacy of Metal Slug and NEOGEO classics.
Designed as a true collector’s piece, this numbered and limited edition pays homage to the iconic series through meticulous design and premium content worthy of its legend.
At the heart of the edition lies the physical version of Metal Slug Tactics — an explosive tactical RPG roguelite developed by Dotemu and Leikir Studio, with the support of SNK. A fast-paced, strategic, and thrilling experience infused with all the arcade spirit that forged the Metal Slug myth.
But the experience doesn’t stop there. The numbered official NEOGEO box, featuring a reversible cover, comes with a giant poster, exclusive lithographs, and the original soundtrack composed by Tee Lopes, available on CD.
The making-of artbook offers a 144-page deep dive into the creative process behind the game: unseen sketches, concept art, and exclusive interviews with the development team — a true look inside the heart of the project.
To top it all off, a commemorative steel-alloy medal with its certificate of authenticity completes this exceptional edition, beautifully presented in a premium magnetic collector’s box.
