Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain
E3 2015 kicked off earlier this week with an epic trailer for the upcoming Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. The video looked great, but a new batch of screens from the trailer show just how pretty the game is.
The selection of screens showcase a variety of different gameplay mechanics. Big Boss pilots a mech, drives a jeep, and rides a horse. Thankfully, the tried-and-true cardboard box stealth tool also makes a return. Scantily-clad sniper Quiet pals around with Big Boss and his one-eyed dog. There's also a sheep strapped to a balloon, floating back to Mother Base. As you can tell, the gameplay is wildly varied. The 20 screenshots barely scratch the surface of Kojima's massive game.
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain releases on September 1 for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360. Read about our hands-on time with the title here.
