Konami has announced that Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes will be released in Spring 2014 with both boxed and digital versions for PS3 and Xbox 360 while PS4 and Xbox One owners will only be able to download it. The title is a prologue to the events of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain that will release later.




METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES BREAKS COVER IN SPRING 2014
New METAL GEAR SOLID title to link directly into events of METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN

Konami Digital Entertainment B.V. has revealed the unique link between its eagerly-awaited METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES title and METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN.

Both new additions to the METAL GEAR SOLID canon, Kojima Productions has created METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES as an entry experience and prologue to the events of METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN. It will serve to introduce key gameplay components that will be fully realised in the fifth, full METAL GEAR SOLID epic, and act as a bridge between the linearity of existing titles and the full open-world environments of METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN.

Explaining the relationship between the two titles, Hideo Kojima – Creator of the METAL GEAR SOLID series and Head of Kojima Productions – commented: “The advanced capabilities of the FOX Engine have allowed me to tell the new story in a new way. There will be a significant difference in what METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN brings to the series, so we want to ease players into the new open world environment and its potential. As such, METAL GEAR SOLID: GROUND ZEROES has been designed to introduce key elements, allowing them to fully benefit from all that the new game will offer.”

METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES charts a rescue mission as users infiltrate a Cuban prison camp, and sets in motion a series of events that culminate in the stunning plotlines of METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN. The prelude showcases key advances to the series made possible by its use of Kojima Productions’ FOX Engine, with a large open environment, and missions where time of day and weather have a dynamic effect on the game and its missions. These elements will play a vital part in the story set up in METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES, while familiarising users with the possibilities they offer ahead of METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN.

Both titles will be released for PlayStation®3, PlayStation®4, the Xbox 360 games and entertainment system and Xbox One, the all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft, highlighting the groundbreaking capabilities that the FOX Engine brings to current and next generation consoles.

METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES will be released for PlayStation®3, PlayStation®4, Xbox 360® and Xbox One® in Spring 2014. The boxed PlayStation®3 and Xbox 360 versions will retail at £29.99, while the digital versions will retail for £19.99. The PlayStation®4 and XboxOne digital versions will retail for £29.99.

digital only release for next gen? that's not gonna go down well..although as it'll be the same on ps4 maybe it'll go down fine. What does take the piss though is that the next gen digital release is a tenner more expensive!

This is the one they showed at E3 right? or was that phantom?

I could care less myself as well. This franchise has never really appealed to me, I've tried playing these games but never had much fun at all. I doubt this will change much of that experience.

If you expect to fook me up the donkey KONAMI at least do me the honour of anouncing it nearer the time. This is far from great news when I eat out I dont expect to be offered only a starter at the price of a full course. I think i will wait for the special edition of METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN
which is bound to have this prologue in physical form for next gen.

C'mon man, aren't the next-gen graphics worth that? :p


Now seriously, you can expect anything from Konami. They basically force you to buy Mirror of Fate in order to play freaking demo of LoS2.

I think will wait for some MGS compilation and then will get both.

Konami distinctively pointed out it's 1080p 60 fps on both next gen consoles.


At this point, I'm interested in seeing what the PC versions of MGR and MGSV will have, knowing that they're being handled separately. I could do with a little bit of full DX11 support.

I think alot of people reading that comment wont understand the "hint" of sarcasm ;)

As a huge MGS fan Im getting this one, Im too curious how it plays. its like testing the water to see how people react to the sudden shift in gameplay mechanic in mgs for a more "western" feel then before. So many people so angry over spelt milk (NOT POINTING FINGER IN THIS COMMUNITY just things I've read else where).

Im more curious about the story, people are complaining about the "misogyny" in a metal gear solid game but forget the bold claims from Kojima about this game tackling racism and torture. Or the fact that this game could possibly "jump the shark" when it comes to being too self aware. Metal Gear has always walked the line of being over the top corny and cheesy while having one foot in reality. We'll have to wait and see...
