What happens at the end of Metal Slug 3?

Unlike the relatively grounded military themes of the first two games, the climax of *Metal Slug 3* takes a dramatic sci-fi turn. The heroes must battle through an alien mothership to rescue captured characters, culminating in a final boss fight against the alien Rootmars.

Why is Metal Slug 3 considered the hardest game in the series?

*Metal Slug 3* features notoriously long levels, an overwhelming number of on-screen enemies, and a brutally difficult final mission. The final stage features multiple branching paths, colossal bosses, and requires relentless dodging, making it incredibly difficult to beat on a single arcade credit.

What platforms can I play Metal Slug 3 on today?

Originally released for the Neo-Geo MVS arcade system in 2000, the game has been widely ported. It is currently available to download digitally on modern platforms like the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch through the ACA Neo Geo line.

How do you get the zombie mode in Metal Slug 3?

In the second mission, if you are hit by the blood vomit of the yellow-clad zombie enemies, your character will transform into a zombie. While zombiefied, you move slower, but you gain a massive, screen-clearing blood-vomit attack and immunity to standard physical damage.
