New Main Story - Journey to the East

After the battle on Mars, Earth enjoyed a long-awaited peace. To better prepare for unknown cosmic risks, the Regular Army decided to take the initiative and seek out more space civilizations. With combined efforts, Andrew Town was transformed into a true spaceship. Led by Marco and the team, they set off once again into the starry ocean. However, humanity's first attempt at space diplomacy did not go smoothly. During the voyage, they encountered a black hole and fell into an otherworldly space filled with classical Eastern charm, losing all contact with Earth...

Season Optimization & Bug Fixes

Weapon Display Stand-Resonance Platform Reduce the grind! The Weapon Resonance Platform is here! To ease the cultivation burden, "Metal Slug: Awakening" will no longer release new Display Stands in future versions. Instead, the Resonance Platform will unlock based on your Commander Level!

Limited-Time Pursuit

Added 5 new chapters

New Cores-Vermilion Bird

New core set-Vermilion Bird: Each time a summon is generated, gain the [Vermilion Bird Blessing] state (stacks slightly). Using character skills consumes all stacks to increase damage for a duration. Start battles with a small number of stacks.

Aiming Optimization

S6 Season Level Boost

Upon S6 start, servers will trigger a level boost based on the Warzone's highest level.

Level Boost to 190

Commanders boosted to 190 will also have related systems boosted:

-Team Weapon level increased to 380

-Team Core level increased to 91

-Materials provided to boost 5 Weapon Display Stands to level 60

-Vehicle Research Workshop levels boosted to 300

*Commanders who haven't reached these standards after the boost can claim extra resources via growth acceleration activities.

Tips

① This aims to help less active commanders reach the seasonal baseline for a smoother experience.

The boost considers current weapon, core, and stand progress to avoid over-distribution.

② For boosted commanders, excess energy will be converted into Military Cards, General Core Parts, and Coins.

New Season Warzone Merging

In the new season, Warzones will be regrouped based on server opening time, activity levels, and overall player combat power. Please check community posts for details.
