In addition to shooting, players can perform melee attacks by using a knife. Known as the SV-001 and SV-002, the tanks increase the player's offense and add considerably to their defense. On the way through each level, players can find numerous weapon upgrades and the eponymous tanks. At this point, players confront a boss, who is usually considerably larger and tougher than regular enemies.

Metal Slug was conceived by the same staff who created several titles at Irem that shared similar presentation such as In the Hunt and GunForce II, with the core concept during development being a simple but exciting side-scrolling shooter featuring a very easy control scheme and visuals inspired by the works of Hayao Miyazaki.
