Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes Will Be A Prologue To The Phantom Pain

Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes Will Be A Prologue To The Phantom Pain

Late last week at this year’s Game Developer’s Conference, Hideo Kojima decided it would be the absolute best time to reveal his studio’s upcoming game, Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain. Even though the official announcement trailer confused 100 percent of the gaming public, we do know the game will star Big Boss (a.k.a Naked Snake) and will combine Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes and The Phantom Pain. But just where will Ground Zeroes fit into The Phantom Pain?

During an interview with GameTrailers, Kojima said Ground Zeroes will serve as a prologue to The Phantom Pain, taking place about nine years prior to Phantom Pain. “… put together, these two pieces comprise Metal Gear Solid 5. And The Phantom Pain is the main part of the game, and it’s really a huge game.”

For those wondering where Ground Zeroes fits into the Metal Gear Solid chronology, Kojima says it’s set “almost immediately after [Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker].” Kojima also comments on how both titles will be distributed and sold as Ground Zeroes will arrive before The Phantom Pain to give players a portion of the larger experience “on a smaller scale.”

Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain Announced With New Trailer

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots was released back in the summer of 2008 with the next game in the series, Metal Gear Solid 5, confirmed to be in the works in separate interviews in 2011  and 2012. After waiting for four years since the last game, Hideo Kojima has finally revealed some details for the upcoming Metal Gear Solid game, which will be called Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain.

MGS5:TPP will once again star everyone’s favorite stealth-action hero, Solid Snake, as he has been in a hospital, comatose for 9 years. Snake wakes up and must escape the hospital, although 9 years without moving his body makes escaping rather difficult which results in him trying his best to escape while crawling through the hospital.

MGS5:TPP will be a combination of The Phantom Pain and Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes, which Kojima revealed during a panel at the Game Developers Conference. Both portions of Metal Gear Solid 5 used the studio’s new FOX engine, which offered some really nice visuals. There’s no word on what platforms the game will be made available, but after viewing the newly-released trailer, we think it’s safe to say next-generation platforms would be considered.
