About Metal Slug 3
Metal Slug 3 is a 2D run-and-gun action platformer built around fast arcade-style runs. On PC via Steam, two players can work through the game's missions together, either on one screen locally or online. It is also available on PlayStation 4, but co-op support and player counts on that release are not confirmed in our data, and cross-platform play is unverified.
