Publisher Dotemu and developer Leikir Studio have announced that Metal Slug Tactics will be delayed. From the original scheduled within this year to 2023 instead.
“Marco, Eri, Fio and Tarma are working together to make Metal Slug Tactics as explosive as possible on release day. But they need a little more time to prepare for the battle ahead.”
Dotemu said through an announcement on Twitter.
“See you in 2023!”
Metal Slug Tactics is a comeback that has moved from a sprinter shooter to a strategy game. Together with the Roguelike style, which has a unique variety. Featuring original pixel-art graphics, retaining the Metal Slug vibe with the main characters and bosses that fans will still remember well.
The game will be released on both Nintendo Switch and PC (Steam), which will have to wait for the exact release date in the future.
Marco, Eri, Fio, and Tarma are tinkering away to make #MetalSlugTactics as explosive as possible on release, but the squad needs a bit more time in the shop to prepare for the battles ahead. See you in 2023! @LeikirStudio x @Dotemu
