The team behind Metal Slug Tactics has today revealed that the title will release day one on Game Pass when it arrives for Xbox One, Series X|S, and PC on November 5th. We got news of the game's proper release date last week, but now we have confirmation of that day one Game Pass arrival.

Alongside the welcome news that GP subscribers won't have to fork out any extra to play Metal Slug Tactics, the team has also provided us with almost 20 minutes of brand-new in-game footage. You can feast your eyes on all of that up above.

And, here's a quick summary of what this new release is all about:

"Metal Slug Tactics is both a respectful homage to an all-time classic and an imaginative new way to celebrate the renowned series, channeling METAL SLUG’s timeless aesthetic through gorgeous pixel art and fluid animation. The game’s highly replayable battlefields pair shuffled layouts from hand-crafted sectors of terrain with subtle roguelite elements, pushing players to adapt and overcome unpredictable clashes as they master dynamic, strategic combat."

This is a welcome addition to the early part of November for Xbox Game Pass players - with the title currently joining a couple of StarCraft games as new arrivals on Nov. 5th. Then, later in the month, we have some major additions to the service - like Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 and Stalker 2.

Who's going to be playing this one on Game Pass, then? Be tactical and tell us if so down below.
