Metal Gear Online Bundled With MGS 5: The Phantom Pain

In case you didn't already know.

Metal Gear Online was showcased at this year’s The Game Awards and we got our first – or rather, third look – at how the mechanics of Metal Gear Solid would work in an online environment. In this case, we see the mechanics of Metal Gear Solid 5 on display.

Konami has confirmed that Metal Gear Online will be included with Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain. So you’ll have both the Mother Base Invasion and Metal Gear Online to play with friends. If there was ever any confusion as to whether Metal Gear Online was a separate game or not, this puts it to rest.

Metal Gear Online will include several different classes for a squad of players to cooperate together and complete different objectives. Though this isn’t the first iteration of the online multiplayer, it looks to be a significantly bigger part of Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain than previous versions. What are your thoughts on it? Let us know in the comments.
