In the Hunt Longplay (Arcade) [4K]

Published 2019-11-11
Developed and published by Irem in 1993

Absolutely stunning sub-nautical shoot 'em up from the team that would eventually go on to form Nazca and create the iconic Metal Slug series.

    Same people that made metal slug, just look at those sprites are insanely well made, the level of detail in this game is beatiful

    I was 3-4 when I played this game , my dad thought me how to play and he played it with me and watched me played it . I requested his help on the bosses . It s one of my only memories with him as he died when I was 4. This video popped up on my feed and it made me happy as I now know which game we played together . When ever I played this he was always with me helping me .

    I remember buying this game for my pirated ps1, it had the title "Metal Slug 3". I was really excited because Metal Slug 3 hadn't yet arrived to the arcades in Mexico. When I ran the game for the first time and the main screen showed up I was totally disappointed, but then after playing a few minutes I got hooked on the gameplay and understood that I'd found a treasure.
  • Just like classic cartoons, sprites will always look stunning. 10, 30, 100 years after. You simply have to admire those microscopic details!
  • Nearly 30 years and this classic never gets old! I still enjoy In the Hunt so much! I remember back in 99 it took me 30 credits to finish it...
  • We gotta appreciate the amount of dedication put into this game. Graphics are nothing short of art!!

    The devs that made Metal Slug used to work for Irem and created this game alongside Gunforce 1 and 2. Gunforce plays almost exactly like Metal Slug. Irem declined in the 90s and the devs left and joined SNK later making the Metal Slug games that we love. RIP IREM

    Although there's a lot going on on the screen, everything is clearly distinguishable. Top notch visual design.

    Brought me memories about my childhood. Back when a simple videogame could make me happy. Too bad I had to grow up.

    This game probably ate coins like pandas eat bamboo

    I was awestruck when I first saw this in an arcade with all the detail and stuff going on simultaneously. Also, what a performance, I don't want my 37 minutes back.

    How much money I have spent on this and metal slug I don't even remember. Nostalgic days

    En los tianguis de México: "Metal Slug 3: Misión Submarina"

    I remember that game. Good times. Metal Slug sends a hug.

    In The Hunt deserves a remake, I called it “In The Hunt: Resurfaced”.

    Man this game is beautiful! Nautical games aren't a dime a dozen, and the Sunken Town level has some awesome visuals, and the Channel with all the buildings in the town blowing up...this is great stuff!
  • I came here to see all the comparisons to metal slug, and I was not disappointed.
