E3 hasn’t even arrived and we’re already getting major game announcements. The latest is the US localization of SNK Playmore’s Metal Slug 7, by Ignition Entertainment The DS game is, like traditional Metal Slug games, a 2D platformer where players shoot enemies and save captured civilians.

Metal Slug 7 may just be one of the biggest games in the series. It has a huge cast - Clark, Eri, Fiolina, Marco, Ralph and Tarma are all playable. It also has seven missions in new locations. Plus there will be new weapons to use, bosses to defeat and vehicles to tear through levels. The press release also mentioned extra gameplay modes, but doesn’t elaborate on what kinds of modes will be available.

I can’t wait. I always preferred portable Metal Slug games, so Metal Slug 7 may just be a must-buy for me. It is due out sometime in Fall 2008.
