This afternoon Konami contacted us to give us, and in turn all of you, a first look at the single-player campaign for METAL GEAR SURVIVE through a new gameplay video with producer commentary via Konami’s official YouTube channel. The video introduces basic survival and gameplay mechanics while showing key action sequences.

Additionally, METAL GEAR SURVIVE will be holding a beta from January 18^th-21^st, 2018. Players will have a chance to jump into co-op mode to build, defend and fight alongside friends online. The Beta will be available to download for PS4 and Xbox One players. Participants will also receive an in-game bonus redeemable with the purchase of the full game. Bonus items include a FOX HOUND name plate, an accessory Metal Gear REX Head and Accessory bandana.

I’m still not sold on METAL GEAR SURVIVE just yet, but it doesn’t look terrible, and I can’t fault it trying to capture that multiplayer build mode that’s all the rage. Knowing that the game has a single-player element helps calm my nerves which is a plus. And, to be honest, I’m sort of glad Kojima is away from the series. #HotTake

The release of METAL GEAR SURVIVE will follow for PS4, Xbox One and PC via Steam on February 20^th, 2018.
