Metal Black
February 24, 2021
For Arcade Classics, we highlight titles that exemplify the type of “just one more quarter” gameplay found in the classic arcades of a bygone era. These Arcade Classics have found a new home on the Legends Arcade Family of products, where their timeless, approachable gameplay can be enjoyed by new generations of players.
This week’s Arcade Classics is TAITO arcade game Metal Black.
Metal Black, which first hit arcades in 1991, is a side-scrolling shooting game featuring a test pilot who steals “CF-345 Blackfly” and confronts “Nemesis” alone in order to stop the invasion of the extraterrestrial intelligent life form that appeared on the earth.
