Time Reversal, Corruption Siege ① New Story - Time Reversal To save Earth from its doomed future, Marco returns alone to the timeline before the Morden War, only to uncover the Corrupt Legion's plot. Marco fights his way out and sends the intel back to Andrew Town. Waiting for him there is Morden, the people's hero newly promoted to Commander-in-Chief of the Regular Army. This time, old foes join hands to light the spark of hope. Deep in the Corrupted Land, another time traveler awaits their fated encounter... ② New Character - Leona An orphan who lost both parents, Leona was adopted by mercenary instructor Heidern and raised under strict military training. As an adult, she became the youngest commander in Heidern's mercenary corps. Her tragic childhood left her quiet, withdrawn, and unused to normal social life. It also made social interaction difficult for her. Known as "the perfect soldier," Leona acts with clear goals, strong execution, and extreme efficiency. But as a commander, communication is her weak point. To her, even the toughest mission is easier than assigning work to her subordinates. Most mercenaries do not find her hard to get along with. Instead, her exceptional skill and calm presence on the battlefield have earned her loyal followers. Leona deeply respects and admires her adoptive father, Heidern. Even in an age of rapid technological progress, she still fights with the dagger he gave her, determined to become his sharpest blade. Her combat ability is extraordinary. Her blade can cut through bullets and armor, making her a true cold-weapon war god. She once fought alongside the P.F. Squad and S.P.A.R.R.O.W.S against the future Morden Army. Her Moon Slasher pierced through the future tech defenses, and its power shook space-time itself. That fleeting flash on Garbage Island was like a butterfly's wing crossing the sea, stirring a great storm in the near future... By the time Leona learned the truth, she had already found the key to changing fate. If time can be reversed, she will give everything to change the future! ③ New Weapon - Light Blade Gun Wield light as a blade and reap the battlefield. Another masterpiece combining hot and cold weapons. Its rounds contain luminous fluid, leaving a shining arc as they fly. The arc not only reveals the trajectory and marks targets, but through the tempering of the cold-flame core, it becomes a blade that rules the battlefield. ④ New Mode - Weapon Master Tournament The new Weapon Master Tournament stage is inspired by the misty charm of Chongqing. It blends the hard-edged style of a cyber mountain city with layered vertical battlefields. Commanders can check in at famous scenes such as Hongya Cave, the Yangtze River Cableway, the monorail passing through buildings, and Shibati, fully experiencing the spirit of Chongqing, the Mountain City of Mist.

genuinely one of the worst games I actually wanted to keep playing. and after a year N 1/2, only got worse. and especially If your not consistently spending at least 20$ a week, it's jus gonna go downhill fast... sadly, cause ultimately could be such an awesome game, but very consistently relies very heavily on the consumer and them spending wild amounts of $ every week or so... so if your not ready to put a few grand each month into a phone game, prolly isn't the game for you

Great Game!!! Expect to become addicted and play for hours.
- Lorenzo · v1.20.1
i was really enjoying this game until all of a sudden it "promoted" me from level 24 to level 210 and auto completed all of the in-game content i was enjoying working through. Really took the fun of of it to see the game just finish itself for no reason.
- Justin Roach
i like Metal Slug Awakening Game😃👍.
- Karan Ware
This game is pretty good despite of how the game runs, the graphics are perfect, the voices are perfect, almost is perfect but there are two thing's that I dislike 1: The characters, if you play all of the classic metal slug games you'll probably know some of them but there are some characters that doesn't feel like metal slug unless its either characters from other games from SNK 2: The Servers, the servers are good but there's a point where you need the boost which kinda ruins the fun (for me)

I don't get how AI and (dis_cord) influencers constantly keep pretending how fine simplified controls are, as long as controls are unprecise as hell on games like this? The game might have been fun, we will just never find out. Because CONTROL TESTING has to be done (by humans) BEFORE RELEASE, not by (human) players AFTER LAUNCH! It's the lacking of basic standards like these that earns games low ratings, no censorship and mass-spamming of AI (drone) reviews does change that fact!
- M. Gebharter · v1.3.3
p2w heavy and all PvP modes and unbalanced for p2w dominance
- Ron Ianson · v1.20.1
Please add controller support!
- 1 day ago · v1.14.0
Good - Fun Bad - low gacha rate - pvp no balance BP - P2W more than F2P - More Bug - Old Hero on gacha
- Somchai Shiji · v1.20.1
I thought it was going to be boring and nothing new or fun..but yeah I was wrong . pretty good game and impressive that they improved the game. I would love if they can make it work with control (Xbox control or play control)
- Eduardo Sanchez · v1.20.1
I love the game, but native gamepad support on Android is a major missing feature for me. Playing with physical controls would significantly improve the experience. Please consider adding this in a future update!
- Daniel Perez · v1.20.1
love it
- Saroj Rai
please fix the pc version it's been down for weeks please fix it
- Tekno Robinson
it's buggy. it lags. it losing connection randomly. but regardless. I actually enjoy it. :D wish it didnt have those issues tho. another issue i have is the story. after you take the forced upgrade. the story just stops. like it's skipping everything. i enjoy playing the story so yall should definitely patch that

NOSTALGIA 😍
- Mounir Aharchi · v1.17.0
Too much dialogue and cut scenes. I'm walking around on the main screen, talking to a bunch of people like resident Evil. I don't know how to play the game. This is the shooting game. It should be non-stop action. This is irresusable. Read my lips.I hate the dialogue can't stop crying
- Myron Prince
Typical gacha game mixed with overly complicated game mechanics.

Laggy connection and glitchy gameplay. Occasionally when prompted to share or post; drop from the game/platform. Otherwise, the game is great try to download it this will be my third time

- Arteest Miami
I downloaded and logged in with my Gmail and game kept getting hung up on network interruption error. My other games load fine and Im running an S25 so there should be no problem.

Good game
- William Rivera · v1.17.1
No controller support. Game is trash.
- Adam Watts · v1.17.1
It's good. Love the music and nostalgia. BUT ***8GB+*** for a side scrolling platform has got to be a record of some kind. How about a Metal Slug LITE for the gamers that have phones already loaded with other games or the ones of us who refuse to buy a new phone every 6 months for more space? It is a good game though, and unfortunately not a lot of people are going to play it, or keep it installed very long. Except for the file size, good job to the Devs.

- Cory Mueller · v1.17.1
This game has always been one of my favorites. I do miss the Neo Geo! I do miss the 90's! Metal Slug is one of the very best shooters ever developed! I can't believe I'm playing this game on a phone. SNK, I didn't see that one coming! The fun factor has always been a 10! The graphics have always been a 10! The storyline has always been a 10! This game is no exception! Metal Slug Awakening is a perfect shooter! This game looks awesome, plays great! It is FUN!

Incredible
- Elguerch Elguerch · v1.17.1
Now this is a super duper awesome game 🎯 I've never seen a awesome game like 😜😝😛
- Alex Velez · v1.17.1
this game is nothing like the metal slug you grew up on wasting hundreds of dollars in quarters at the arcade, just run a mame emulator app on your phone and have at it instead
- JC Gomez

fun and easy to play
- Bernard Whitaker · v1.17.1
Monetized junk. Stay away. Go play a real game that you can honestly buy, that doesn't constantly try to nickel and dime you every 5 minutes.

me gusta Metal Slug: Awakening
- Alex Olmos · v1.17.1
Love this game. Please bring controller support for android.
- Paul Mandal · v1.8.3
Really fun time until the game forces you to level boost from 22 to 190. I now have this super team that I didn't earn, and the story is busted. The story mode and other modes like Joint Operation think I've finished them but I haven't. So I still need to go through the story to unlock other stuff but because I'm now so high level, none of the dialogue plays anymore. Utterly baffling decision I hope was a bug. Let players opt out of level boosting. Level boosting sucks!
- Salvatore Haran · v1.17.0
2 gigs then as soon as I open the game .... 1 gig update? Come on
