As an update to our earlier articles on Metal Slug 6, Ignition Entertainment has just released the logo and five new screenshots of the sixth installment to add to the Metal Slug Anthology.

Metal Slug 6 will have single-player, two-player, and co-op mode. What sets it apart from the earlier Metal Slugs though is that instead of having the previous games' Martians breaking the alliance and the Rebels assisting the player in turn, the player can now team up with BOTH the Rebels and Martians.

Metal Slug 6 will also have new pseudo-vehicular Slugs and will feature a new weapon, the Zangetsu Sword which is a sonic blade that emits lethal energy waves that will neutralize enemy firepower. The game will also feature a new Weapon Stock System wherein two gun powerups can be carried simultaneously, making weapon-switching a lot easier.

Metal Slug 6 will complete the said anthology that Ignition Entertainment will release to showcase the game franchise that's been around for ten years. The Metal Slug Anthology will also be available for the Wii and will be released for both the PSP and the next-gen console on November.

SNK Playmore is the developer for both the PSP and Wii version of the Metal Slug Anthology and handles the publishing duties for the Wii version as well. Ignition Entertainment is the publisher for the PSP version. But enough with the developer/publisher hoolabaloo, here are the new Metal Slug 6 screens to feast your eyes on. Enjoy!

 » Screen Size....

As long as I can change the screen size for this game I will be happy. I hope it's like the NeoGeoCDZ emulator where you can change screen sizes and get the best picture (so it's not pixelated) :)

Ok, there will be a new Metal Slug 6 on PSP? Together with the rest of Metal Slugs?
