Metal Slug 6 to get worldwide PSP release in Anthology form
The 2006 arcade conversion completes the upcoming compilation
Publisher Ignition Entertainment has added Metal Slug 6 to its upcoming Metal Slug Anthology for the PSP.
Metal Slug 6, which hit Japanese arcades this summer, has not yet been released in the rest of the world, and its inclusion means the decade-spanning Anthology has all its Slugs in a row.
Pictured in the new screenshots above, Metal Slug 6 sees characters from other titles such as Ikari Warriors and King of Fighters join the classic run-and-gun game.
Other games covered in the Anthology include Metal Slug 1, Metal Slug 2, Metal Slug X, Metal Slug 3, Metal Slug 4 and Metal Slug 5.
"The inclusion of Metal Slug 6 in the Anthology means that an already great package has just got a whole lot better", gasped Peter Rollinson of Ignition, as he jumped up and down on the anthology-making machine to squeeze in the latest material. "Metal Slug Anthology now offers something for everyone".
Further attractions include a two-player co-operative mode, support for both widescreen and original screen format, unlockable items and bonus galleries containing Metal Slug classic character art and posters. The game is due out by Christmas.
