Modeled estimate, not a reported figure. How we estimate →
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 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,402 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.

muy mal port, sufre de los mismos problemas que el X como las ralentizaciones, si quieres jugar con un amigo no debes tener iniciado el juego y aceptar la invitación de tu amigo desde el chat de steam y tambien tener esperanza de que el juego no le salte el error, de repente el audio de comenzó a trabar como si los audios se encimaran, hasta parecer sonido de ambulancia y mala suerte si te ocurre esto en la misión final y también si juegas en teclado vas a sufrir igual, el error mas evidente es que cuando subes a un vehiculo es muy probable que actives la autodestrucción de vehiculo por accidente en la mayoría de las ocasiones, solo he visto que pasa en teclado eso. es el segundo port de metal slug que juego aqui y sufre de los mismos problemas que el X

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
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.

太塔玛好玩啦！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！
cool
非常好玩的游戏~~
[b]Thank you... Mission Complete![/b] 🧔👍 Divertido, clássico, desafiador e nostálgico. O terceiro jogo dessa franquia maravilhosa e agora com ainda mais personagens em comparação ao primeiro título. Na minha opinião, as fases dos aliens, dos zumbis na neve e dos vermes são as mais criativas e divertidas. Inclusive, foram nelas que aproveitei para farmar algumas conquistas. Sugiro este, assim como os outros jogos da franquia. É aquele tipo de jogo que nunca cansa e rende ótimos momentos, principalmente com os amigos. A única chatice mesmo são as gosmas lançadas pelos zumbis... [b]Platina?[/b] Tem! A maior parte é conquistada em algumas runs: eliminar um certo número de inimigos, resgatar prisioneiros de guerra, jogar o multiplayer e alcançar certa pontuação, completar as missões, jogar várias vezes com cada personagem e até se tornar um boneco de neve, kkkkk. 🐒⛄ [quote] Come back any time! - Mercador [/quote]
Peak, 10/10. The game knows what it wants to be and nails it in every way.
mamu k pc pe khelta tha, good times
经典之作，至今还记得小时候看到外星人围着中间转圈时的震撼，那时候还是在4399上玩的，在steam上重温经典，品质依然过硬，就是没想到流程竟然这么短，这里面有着无限命的功劳，但还是有点短，我还以为会有3~4h。 第一章的大螃蟹和后面的僵尸外星人真的是给我留下了难以磨灭的印象，许多火箭前仆后继升空时，全身都在起鸡皮疙瘩，这个场景真是能给人带来莫大的感动和震撼，不愧是masterpiece
