For more on Metaloid: Origin, read the following overview:
Metaloid: Origin is the sequel to the run-and-gun classic Metagal! Take control of 3 “Predator” androids as they defend their world against Lucian Corp’s robot army. Each playable character offers distinct advantages. Erika can flood the screen with bullet fire, Zeta uses atomic thunder to strike hard and fast and Neva flies across levels and attacks from above thanks to her jetpack. As one of those warriors, you’ll have to go through forests, deserts, caves and snowfields to stop the invaders before they drain the planet’s resources and fuel a galactic war! Use Soulrium dropped by defeated robots to unlock new weapons at any time, and gain the power needed to take down formidable bosses.
Key Features
● Select between 3 android warriors with unique abilities.
● Dash through 9 levels with varied biomes!
● Collect Soulrium to purchase new powers and equipment.
