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): 0.29/day in the week to Aug 13 → 1.29/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 2,400 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
This game is good, but I would mainly recommend it to someone who is new to the game or franchise. I bought it because I used to play it on mobile, and I thought this would be a compilation of all the units, artwork, stories, events, etc. from the mobile game. Unfortunately, more than half of the content from the mobile game is missing here, with no news of any updates in the near future. This means that a lot of the original game is now basically lost media. I honestly wouldn’t mind paying for new updates, but for me, the game is disappointing in its current state because it is missing so much content from the mobile app. I really think that adding that content would help make this a much more solid experience for both new and old players. If SNK works on an update in the future, I think adding 2-player PvP, daily/weekly random missions or events, and a mode where you can play against the computer using your own decks would help a lot. A match-results table like the one from the mobile game would also be the best addition.

Few times I post a review, but this is the most not fun game of all time. Absolute ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.
솔직히 노가다 심하긴한데 인게임 재화로 캐릭터 뽑기로 바겨서 그건 좋았고 재발 계속 업데이트좀 해주세요ㅠㅠ DLC로 팔아도 살테니까 재발...
I've played the mobile version of this, the mobile version was fun, maybe a few broken characters, but you are able to get them. This version isn't better, but i would say it's a downgraded version of the mobile version, its still fun, it's different, but sometimes I feel like my deck needs more anime girls than the other stuff which is a bummer because it was the vehicles, tanks, planes, alien robots and such that got me hooked in the first place. But like what I have said before, the game is still good, sometimes you got to grind out some of the levels in order to get to the highest tier. There should definitely be more updates, no joke I hopped into a public match not knowing the game was dead for about 32 mins. I really like how it's not pay to win like the mobile version, but the mobile had more consistent updates with fresh designs. This game makes me wish I've played more of the mobile version before it went gone.

真心希望大家听我一句劝。这个游戏的最佳食用方法是:只开无限抽卡资源(勋章)的外挂,其他外挂一律不开。这样玩有几个爽点: 1、体验氪金大佬无限抽卡的快乐。 2、始终拥有较强单位碾压推图。 3、但又不失养成成长的乐趣、以及保留了局内合理使用AP的小小压力。 真的,大家信我,这样是最好玩的。但如果不开勋章外挂,你就等着被对面碾压吧,非常坐牢。
es bueno pero quiero que se puedan cambiar los fondos del lobby y que haya mas jefes como unidades como el zeppelin de metal slug 4 o el shoting ray de metal slug 5
esta bien culero, tienes que farmeas dias enteros para subir a tus unidades y el online esta bien muerto, la jugabilidad esta bien culero y la mitad de las unidades no sirven
hace tiempo no me divertía y me reía tanto por un juego, muy buen gameplay e historia. tiene un muy buen humor. se mantiene igual de rejugable que su entrega para celulares, solo me gustaria volver a tener los eventos de personajes para desbloquearlos
