Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 1.29/day in the week to Aug 13 → 3.14/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Reviews
SNK перестала притворяться, что делает военный run-and-gun, и просто начала вываливать на экран всё, что художники успели придумать: зомби, крабы, мумии, подводные лодки, космос, инопланетян и развилки маршрутов. Анимация всё ещё выглядит неприлично дорого, оружие приятно разрывает экран на куски, а каждые пять минут игра подбрасывает очередную xyйню с выражением: «ну что, этого ты точно не ожидал?» Проблема в том, что Metal Slug 3 не умеет вовремя заткнуться. Финальная миссия длится так, будто SNK решила засунуть в неё ещё одну полноценную игру, потому что выкидывать готовые спрайты было жалко. Это великолепный аркадный дурдом и, пожалуй, вершина классической серии — но под конец начинаешь подозревать, что настоящий последний босс здесь не пришельцы, а разработчик, который отказывается закончить уровень.

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 10: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

Metal Slug 3 es, para mí, el mejor juego de toda la saga disponible en Steam y probablemente uno de los arcades más divertidos que se han hecho nunca. Además, jugarlo de nuevo me ha dado una nostalgia increíble, porque originalmente lo tuve en PS2 y recuerdo pasar horas jugándolo junto a mi hermana. Volver a este título ha sido como regresar directamente a esa época. Todo lo que hacía bien la saga alcanza aquí su mejor versión. Más variedad, más locura, mejores niveles, enemigos más espectaculares y una cantidad absurda de situaciones memorables. Este juego no deja de sorprender constantemente: transformaciones, rutas alternativas, vehículos nuevos, escenarios completamente diferentes entre sí y bosses gigantescos que siguen siendo una auténtica pasada incluso hoy en día. Además, el ritmo del juego es excelente. Se siente más grande y ambicioso que los anteriores, algo que también se nota en la duración, ya que es claramente el Metal Slug más largo de los disponibles en Steam. Y precisamente por eso también termina siendo el más complicado cuando intentas sacar el famoso logro de completar el juego sin usar continues. Aquí sí hace falta muchísima práctica, paciencia y aprenderse prácticamente cada sección del juego de memoria. Visualmente sigue siendo una maravilla del pixel art. Las animaciones tienen muchísimo detalle, los escenarios están llenos de vida y el carisma que desprende cada misión sigue siendo increíble. Además, el cooperativo vuelve a ser uno de sus mayores puntos fuertes; pocos juegos arcade son tan divertidos para jugar acompañado como este. Otra cosa que siempre me ha gustado mucho de Metal Slug 3 es cómo mezcla acción frenética con ese tono absurdo y desenfadado tan característico de la saga. Nunca sabes qué locura te vas a encontrar en la siguiente misión, y eso hace que cada partida siga siendo entretenida incluso después de tantos años. En definitiva, un clásico absoluto y, para mí, la mejor entrega de toda la franquicia. Nostálgico, divertidísimo y completamente atemporal. Si te gustan los arcades clásicos, este juego es prácticamente obligatorio.
元々アーケードで出ていたアクションゲーム。 そのため難易度はかなり高いです。普通にプレイするだけなら無限コンテニューもありクリア自体は簡単です。 フレンドと2P協力プレイも可能で、実績もありのためソロだけだと全実績解除はできないです。 実績の「ノーコンテニューでゲームをクリア」はソロでやるにはEasyでもかなり難しいです。 練習とか合わせたら多分15時間とかでなんとかノーコンクリアできました。 ソロでのノーコンクリアはおすすめしないですが、 ゲーム自体は面白いのでライトに遊ぶのにはおすすめです。 オンラインの実績以外解除で約28.5時間ほど。
[h1] METAL SLUG 3 [/h1] Możemy jeździć najlepszym pojazdem czyli... strusiem!
the epic sequal to a game that was truly great in the arcades. i highly recommend it
very nice
Nivel favorito? el 2, tengo dos opciones: ir como humano a salvar a las demas personas o ir como zombie y acabar con todo lo que hay por delante >:D
Desde mi punto de vista, el mejor juego de toda la saga y la mejor forma de cerrar toda una trilogía. Misiones repletas de adrenalina, personajes principales y villanos carismáticos y una de las mejores misiones finales en la historia de los videojuegos
