'''''Metal Slug''''' ({{ja|メタルスラッグ|Metaru Suraggu}}, ''Metal Slug'') is a series of run-and-gun shooters. Known for their fluid animation and two-player co-op gameplay, the series involves a small team of soldiers called the Peregrine Falcons and the SPARROWS under the command of the Regular Army as they travel the world to defeat mysterious enemy factions (most notably the military madman General Morden and the Rebel Army and the alien invaders known as Mars People, though in ''Metal Slug 5'' the main enemies are the mysterious Ptolemaic Army and in '' Metal Slug 6'' the Rebel army and the Mars People made a alliance with the Peregrine Falcons to stand over the outbreak of a new alien invasion knows as The Invaders), wielding semi-automatic handguns and a small tank known as SV-001 (the eponymous "Metal Slug"). As each stage progresses, they acquire more powerful weapons and tanks until confronting the final enemy. The characters of ''Metal Slug'' make common appearances in ''The King of Fighters'', and starting with ''Metal Slug 6'', the series also crosses over with ''Ikari Warriors''. | '''''Metal Slug''''' ({{ja|メタルスラッグ|Metaru Suraggu}}, ''Metal Slug'') is a series of run-and-gun shooters.
