Metal Slug Weapons

The game introduces various special weapons, each with its unique characteristics and effects, enhancing gameplay with strategic options. Most special weapons allow players to aim at any angle, except for the Iron Lizard. Notable special weapons include:

Flame Shot:

Similar to its version in Metal Slug: Super Vehicle-001, it fires a weak flame burst.

Blizzard:

A new addition, it shoots a constant stream of ice that freezes enemies and creates large water pools

Unique Weapons:

  • These main guns use specific types of ammunition and can be reloaded infinitely after running out or not firing for a short time. They include:

    • Bazooka: Rapidly fires rockets.
    • Gatling: A Heavy Machine Gun with increasing fire rate as the player holds the button.
    • Heavy Sniper Rifle: Fires fast, penetrating shots.
    • Boxing Gun: Extends a punching glove that explodes behind the targeted enemy.
    • Saw Launcher: Shoots spinning saws that can stick to enemies and extend for a larger area of effect.

Collecting a special weapon replaces the character's currently held weapon. If a special weapon with the same properties as the unique weapon is collected, it temporarily boosts the unique weapon's stats. Additionally, all weapons can afflict side effects on enemies, including exposing weak points, causing wounds, igniting enemies, and freezing them. These effects are temporary but can be stacked on a single enemy for added damage and strategic advantages.
