Metal Slug: Awakening Now Available for Pre-Registration on Android!

Get ready for a blast from the past! HaoPlay Limited's upcoming title, Metal Slug: Awakening, is bringing back the arcade action. Launching globally on July 18th, 2024, pre-registration is now open.

Here's the lowdown:

Metal Slug: Awakening is a modern reboot of the classic '90s franchise. Initially revealed in 2020 by TiMi Studios as Metal Slug Code: J, the game has seen some delays and name changes before its Southeast Asian release in late 2023. Now, it's finally ready for a worldwide launch.

For the uninitiated, Metal Slug is a renowned Japanese run-and-gun series, debuting in 1996 courtesy of Nazca Corporation. It's since evolved into a multimedia phenomenon.

While not Metal Slug's first mobile venture (remember Metal Slug Defense, Attack, and Commander?), Awakening promises enhanced features and gameplay.

The game retains the core run-and-gun mechanics, but with updated visuals and new gameplay elements. Rejoin your favorite Metal Slug characters in fresh missions, explore a World Adventure mode, team up with friends in 3-player co-op, and conquer Roguelike challenges.
