Konami announced on Monday that Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes is slated for a Spring 2014 release in North America and Europe. Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu reports that the Japanese release date is unknown.
Konami also confirmed that Metal Gear Solid V consists of two separate games: Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain and Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes. Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes provides the backstory behind the events in Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.
Kiefer Sutherland will play the role of Snake in the game produced and directed by Hideo Kojima. Yoji Shinkawa will serve as character and mechanical designer, Hideki Sasaki as CG art director, Junji Tago as technical director, and Masayuki Suzuki as lighting artist.
The game features Snake after he wakes up from a nine-year coma. Snake has lost a lot of his abilities, and must crawl through a hospital to escape.
Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes features open-world gameplay supported by Kojima Productions' new FOX Engine. Players can decide between an overt or stealthy approach to missions.
Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes is scheduled to debut on the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One consoles. The PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 disc release will retail for US$29.99. The digital release will be US$19.99. The digital-only PlayStation 4 and Xbox One release will be US$29.99.
