Release Date
Cast and Crew
In the aftermath of the events of Ground Zeroes and the destruction of Militaires Sans Frontières, Big Boss falls into a coma. Nine years later, he awakes and forms a new mercenary group, the Diamond Dogs. Now under the guise of the codename "Venom Snake", he ventures into Afghanistan during the Soviet war to track down the men responsible for MSF's destruction. Along the way, he becomes reacquainted with his former rival Ocelot and encounters a unit of warriors robbed of their past, present and future. While he and Kazuhira "Kaz" Miller are initially driven to exact revenge, Snake soon unearths a plot by the Cipher organization to develop a weapon with the potential to surpass even the Metal Gear system, and his mission quickly switches focus to ending this new threat
Gameplay
- Open world: Not one massive, continuous world, but rather, a set of large, open areas set in different places
- Story: Small missions are completed individually and tie together to present the overall story.
- Transportation: Vehicles and horses. Enemy vehicles can be stolen and used as transportation, and a means to escape hostile areas.
- Crawling returns (was absent in Peace Walker)
- More realistic CQC (Three icons appear, allowing players to interrogate, knock out, or kill the guard.)
- Binoculars can be used to mark enemies
- enemy AI has been described as advanced and "unpredictable" their paths cover wider areas than before.
- Base building returns from Peace Walker
- iDroid replaces on screen mini-map
- Cardboard box returns!
Multiplayer
Players can infiltrate other Mother Bases in multiplayer. As seen in the gameplay videos, these bases will feature different names such as Stubborn Sheep and Roughneck Raven. Players will have to try and avoid guards and other security measures set up by the player they are invading. The objective seems to revolve around stealing (fulton) other players possessions such as guards and weapons.
A new version of Metal Gear Online should appear as well, but exact details have yet to be revealed.

NeoGAF MGS V mosaic? What's this about?
Well, all of this started when I won some tickets to attend the Metal Gear Solid V event near gamescom. This included a signing session with Hideo Kojima. Because I didn't really have anything special to get signed, MGS-GAF came together and created a pretty cool looking mosaic image in just a few hours To my surprise, once it was printed... a lot of people told me they didn't know we were doing this and kinda wish they could have been included.
So, what happened?
Unfortunately, the stream lasted longer than expected with the Q/A and Silent Hills bit. There was no time left for a signing session. Fortunately, Diamond Dawgs never give up and now we decided to simply send this to Kojima. Well, not straight to the man himself. ToraShiro will help us with this. It just needs to reach him before TGS and then we're fairly sure Kojima will get it!
What does this mean?
We could just send him the print(s) we already got, but I decided it would be a good opportunity to gather more NeoGAF users this time. More people, more avatars... an even better mosaic picture! We just want to give more people a chance to be included this time.
