‘Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes’ Platform Exclusive Content Wont Be Exclusive Much Longer
Briefly: The short-ass game with a ton of replayability, Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes is about to get some new content.
At launch, Sony and Microsoft platforms each had an exclusive mission. In celebration of over 1 million copies sold, a new title update will unlock and allow all users to access the Déjà vu and Jamais Vu missions, regardless of the platform you’re playing on!
Originally launched exclusively for PlayStation platforms, the Déjà vu mission, often referred to as a “throwback” mission, is based on missions from the original METAL GEAR SOLID game and lets users play as a pixelated, low polygon Solid Snake. To progress in the mission, players must recreate the key scenes. As a reward, players will see flashbacks to the previous game.
“Jamais Vu”, the Xbox platform exclusive mission, references the 1988 game, “SNATCHER,” the second video game written and directed by Hideo Kojima. In the mission, the menacing bioroid “Snatchers” are dropped into Camp Omega to kill and steal the identities of everything they come in contact with. To kill off these enemies, players need a hero other than Snake—enter Raiden, the superhuman ninja cyborg from previous METAL GEAR titles, including most recently METAL GEAR RISING: REVENGEANCE. This time, Raiden dispenses with his High-Frequency Blade in favor of heavy weaponry to completely annihilate the “Snatcher” threat.
