Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc., today uncovered new details for METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES. Coming on the heels of the launch of Sony Computer Entertainment America’s PlayStation 4 computer entertainment system, Hideo Kojima, creator of the METAL GEAR SOLID series, and head of Kojima Productions, debuted new content for METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES.
In the 12-minute extended gameplay video, captured from the PlayStation 4 system, Mr. Kojima showcased a “Side Ops” day mission in which Big Boss must use stealth tactics and sophisticated cover techniques to retrieve key intelligence from a double agent. New gameplay mechanics, time of day, weather conditions, refined AI and pristine graphics showcase the innovative gameplay design and the power of the FOX Engine and the PlayStation 4 system.
PlayStation system users will also be thrilled to discover Mr. Kojima announced METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES will feature an exclusive mission for the PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system and PlayStation 4 system. The “throwback” mission titled “Déjà Vu,” recreates a mission originally featured in the original METAL GEAR SOLID game AND lets users play as Solid Snake (in all of his low-polygon, pixelated glory) in the high definition Ground Zeroes universe.
