In addition to everything that made the arcade original a worldwide hit, the Xbox version of METAL SLUG 3 will have some brand new features and original missions accessible once you’ve cleared certain conditions. Players can choose from over 10 new slug vehicles exclusive to METAL SLUG 3, including the Slug Copter and the very unusual Elephant Slug, which comes complete with a trunk-spray weapon.

METAL SLUG 3 features stunning hand drawn animation, detailed backgrounds, and massive bosses and explosions, causing leading gaming site IGN.com to exclaim, “D-d-d-damn! Let 2D sprite-based graphics continue forever!”

“The METAL SLUG franchise has always been a consumer favorite,” said Ben Herman, SNK NEOGEO USA CONSUMER CORPORATION President. “Now Xbox owners will be able to compete nationally to see who’s best on this faithful arcade adaptation.”
