+Fantastic run n gun gameplay singleplayer or multiplayer
The music, like the graphics and gameplay, truly benefitted from the limitations of the era.
It is a fairly short game with six missions that can be played either single player or multiplayer.
We also see CO-OP making a big play in this game as well, you are able to play local or online co-op of the story mode which is something I always like to see in games.
That was the case and it shows on Metal Slug's OST, which will forever be remembered for being packed with bangers.
Definitely worth buying for solo play or coop with a friend, runs great on SteamDeck too.

Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
