Konami Digital Entertainment, today announced the digital release debut of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of The Patriots via the PlayStation Network for the PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system on December 16th, 2014, for an SRP of $19.99. The release marks the first time the acclaimed tactical espionage game has been made available as a digital download.
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of The Patriots is set in a battle-scarred future where huge conglomerates fight for supremacy using armies of handpicked mercenaries. This devastated world is seen through the battle-weary eyes of an older Solid Snake who is tasked with infiltrating a number of key locations across the globe, including the Middle East and South America. Snake’s story delivers a deep and involved campaign, filled with eclectic characters that push the aged hero to his limits.
Originally released in 2008, the groundbreaking Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of The Patriots was the series’ first exploration of non-linear stages, heralded the addition of a remote-controlled ‘Metal Gear Mk. II’ droid — the revolutionary OctoCamo suit that allows Snake to blend in with his surroundings — and introduced an enhanced Close Quarters Combat (CQC) system. All of these elements have been carried forward and are being implemented on a larger scale for the upcoming, highly-anticipated Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of The Patriots for the PlayStation Network will be a 30 GB download.
