KONAMI details special anniversary edition of GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS
Konami Digital Entertainment GmbH will continue its celebrations of the METAL GEAR saga’s 25th anniversary, with a special December re-release of Hideo Kojima’s acclaimed METAL GEAR SOLID 4: GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS for PlayStation®3.
Originally released in 2008, METAL GEAR SOLID 4: GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS is set in a battle-scarred future where huge conglomerates fight for supremacy using armies of hand-picked mercenaries. This devastated world is seen through the battle-weary eyes of an older Solid Snake who has been charged with infiltrating a number of key locations across the globe, including the Middle East and South America. As such, the epic end to Snake’s story offers ground-breaking combat elements, a refined control system that offers unprecedented control over the aged hero, and the tying up of key plot lines and loose ends.
The reworked update adds Trophy support to the game, wherein players are rewarded for key skills. The new version also boasts great new sleeve artwork and an exclusive, double-sided poster featuring Metal Gear 25th anniversary artwork by Yoji Shinkawa and depicting key characters from the game. It will hit stores across Australia and New Zealand on December 18.
