I wonder if Metal Slug Mania is the way to go.

So I take it that KoFXV & Metal Slug will be cross-gen?

i'm certain it won't be gorgeous pixel art metal slug and that makes me sad.

Mainline KOF and SamSho have switched to 3D but play like classic KOF and SamSho.

It's probably safe to expect the same from the new Metal Slug.

2.5D with classic MS gameplay.

Bring back tag (and jhun) to KoF

The website only mentions a KOF title to be released in 2020 though, not KOFXV specifically.

KOFXV being 2020 was mentioned in a previous meeting by the chairman of SNK.

Around TGS2018 Oda also mentioned that KOFXV is in development.

Will be interesting to see Metal Slug. KOF will only get better from here.

I'll take 3D Metal Slug if it means they can go crazy with content and also keep the small animation details from the older games.

I wish I was more excited, but metal slug is all about coop and I currently don't have a buddy to play with.

SamSho numbers without a doubt boosted by the EVO announcement. Good.
