Of course, this is not a negative, but the Metal Slug 6 soundtrack is truly a big departure from what one would expect - even more than Metal Slug 4. The score features familiar tunes along with fresh new ones, along with a strange and inconsistent mix of musical styles. Strangely, the soundtrack was mostly composed by Basiscape’s Manabu Namiki with a few tracks by Mitsuhiro Kaneda. Metal Slug 6 was fortunately a very good comeback for the franchise, being developed by the classic SNK members. This is what happens when Manabu Namiki scores a Metal Slug game, or at the very least, this was my impression upon listening to it for the first time. Whilst it's mostly played for laughs, in-universe it must be a horrible time for anyone living there.If the soundtracks of Radiant Silvergun and any Cave shooter had a child together, the Metal Slug 6 soundtrack would be that child… A strange and hyperactive child that doesn’t fit anywhere with everyone else, but can still make friends easily. Bearing in mind these conflicts also involved: a zombie outbreak an alien impersonating a major world leader giant mutant animals created by mad science an alien invasion so severe the heroes were forced into an unholy alliance with their arch-enemies and the other aliens (who had only just failed their own invasion attempt) and a cult wielding both advanced technology and functional magic with a literal Avatar of Evil in its ranks.
In other words, the six world-war scale conflicts against the three NGO Superpowers (Rebels, Amadeus, Ptolemaics) and two different Alien Invasions attempting to Take Over the World happened an average of six months apart from one another. The events of Metal Slug 1 to 6 happened in the span of three years.It starts out like every other version of the theme, only for it to change into something more creepy and otherworldly-ish. 6's version of "Final Attack", which is essentially a Dark Reprise of the aforementioned theme.That said, the fight afterward will likely give you dreams of a much better kind. His entrance is rather unsettling as well, given how he flies in from nowhere and cackles madly before doing battle with you. For starters, he is not exactly the prettiest alien you'll ever meet, with special mention going to the fact that his brain is visible and sticking out of his head. On the subject of final bosses, there is Rootmars, the leader of the Mars People and the final boss of the third game.
Perhaps the only comforting thing is that it is driven off by normal human weaponry note which, if you don't die and are playing alone, will likely be a single pistol.
And what even is this thing? Is it the Grim Reaper? Is it some sort of demon god? Or something else entirely? The fact that there is absolutely no info on this thing doesn't help at all. It even looks nightmarish, with its red eyes, Celestial Body, and it has a giant human skull on its chest, as well as the giant scythe it holds. It is an entity that comes from nowhere, has a hellish screech, and it leaves just as quickly as it appears. The Avatar of Evil, the Final Boss of Metal Slug 5.The cutscene after you beat Lugus also counts. It is a Womb Level with wet flesh everywhere with a final boss that more fitting in Castlevania than it is for Metal Slug. Every time a stage is accompanied by "Metamorphosis", you know some disturbing things are about to come down.While your character turning fat due to collecting a lot of food items in a short period of time can be funny, the death animation for fat mode is surprisingly frightening: Instead of your charcter merely getting knocked back and collapsing, they pop like a balloon!.
