Metal Gear Solid V's Online Component Will Let You Play As Snake [Screenshots Added]
Tonight at The Game Awards, Hideo Kojima and Konami Productions Los Angeles showed off the online component for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. In addition to character customization and the always enjoyable Fulton Recovery System, players will be able to take on the role of familiar series characters.
The trailer gives us a look at a team infiltrating an enemy base, with Kiefer Sutherland's Snake in the lead. Some of the team wears active camouflage, Snake teleports away from a mech at the last minute, and players use all sorts of gadgets to foil their foes. More details will be coming next year closer to launch.
You can also check out the dedicated trailer for the new mode below.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
