Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain Video Showcases Fulton Recovery System

Some new gameplay videos were revealed by Kojima Productions for Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain (courtesy of NeoGAF). One of them showcased the game’s Fulton recovery system, which can be used by the player to recover just about anything on the field. Check it out above.

The Fulton recovery can now be performed as a normal action even if you have some other item or weapon equipped. Simply walk up to something, whether it be an animal, container, vehicle or even a soldier, and hit Triangle. Like a bat out of Hell, these will be swooped away and sent back to Mother Base where they will be added to your supplies. You’ll see different recovery rates depending on the time of day: Normal days will offer an 80 percent recovery chance while it will take longer when it rains or at night.

Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain is currently in development for Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS3 and PS4.
