The player can replay previously completed stages to achieve better grades before proceeding to the fifth stage (after that point, the player must play through the remaining set of stages continuously). A high hit-ratio, along with the minimization of lives lost and continues used, is essential to receive the better endings, and consequently unlock the additional extra features. Every unique target in each stage, whether it be an actual enemy or an object in the area, that is destroyed increases this ratio. The game introduces a "hit rate" system which gauges the number of enemies destroyed as a form of performance metric. However, the ending received now depends on player performance, rather than the path taken during the course of a game. Like Contra: Hard Corps, Shattered Soldier has multiple endings. The charged versions of the same weapons are: the Round Sweeper, which launches out a "gun pod" that sprays bullets in multiple directions the Energy Shot, a large gunshot which delivers great damage and a barrage of Homing Missiles that traces the nearest target. The standard shots are: a rapid-fire automatic machine gun (Heavy Machine Gun), a flamethrower (Flame Whip) and a grenade launcher (Diver Mines). Each weapon has a standard automatic shot and an alternate charge shot for a total of six types of shots. Instead, the player is equipped with one of three permanent weapons that can be switched at any point. The major departure in Shattered Soldier is the omission of power-up items. In addition to being able to keep the character's mobility still while aiming and shooting, the player can also keep their character's aim still while moving as well (a feature that was introduced in C: The Contra Adventure and retroactively ported over to the Game Boy Advance version of Alien Wars). The controls and abilities are similar to the ones featured in Contra III: The Alien Wars. The game is played entirely in 2D from a side-view perspective, but with fully polygonal graphics, although some segments in which the player rides a snowboard or a motorcycle are viewed from a front or rear-view perspective.
