Metal Slug: Awakening on Aug 31st: Thrilling Revival or Risky Transition?

Summary: Metal Slug: Awakening is a newly developed side-scrolling action shooting mobile game licensed by SNK, based on the essence of the legendary arcade masterpiece! With upgraded visuals that pay homage to its retro roots while introducing a fresh and captivating art style, the game brings a splendid visual presentation and abundant content, including a vast array of weapons, diverse battlefields, and various super-vehicles.

If you've ever been to a pizza place, laundromat, or mall, chances are you’ve seen an arcade cabinet before. Though a rare sight now, these wondrous machines would eat away time and your precious quarters in exchange for good ol’ retro fun. Among these machines, none quite hold a special place in my heart like the Metal Slug games. Metal Slug Awakening is the franchise’s big return to mobile devices everywhere ever since the games practically went dormant after Metal Slug XX. And unlike the now defunct mobile Attack and Defend games, Metal Slug Awakening plays similarly to old school arcade run’n’guns and will feel right at home in the hands of series’ veterans.
