Metal Gear Online expansion dated and priced

Posted on July 14th, 2008 at 12:00 EDT

Konami Digital Entertainment announced today that its upcoming Metal Gear Online Gene Expansion will be released on July 17 for approximately EUR 9.99

The add-on will make available three new maps for players to battle on, a Survival Mode, in addition to adding Johnny and Meryl to the game’s roster of playable characters.

Konami’s European Brand Manager, Christopher Heck, commented, “Konami is committed to the evolution of Metal Gear Online, and this first expansion pack illustrates the ways the game can be enhanced with new stages, characters and modes.”

“The new update represents terrific value for money, and will be followed by additional add-ons in the coming months designed to keep Metal Gear Online fans enthralled with the new possibilities they will bring.”

Stay tuned for more information regarding Konami’s future releases at the publishers E3 Media and Business Summit conference later this week.

Good but its a bit sexist that you have to pay for a female character as an option the idea of having johnny (i hope its "akiba" not johnny) and meryl plus 3 maps and a new mode for only £9.99 is pretty good value for money though

This makes me feel bad about the fact that I dont seem to like Metal Gear ONLINE.

They are supporting the community and all but the gameplay just doesnt cut it for me! I wish it did though! MG universe is amazing and the fact that Konami supports the game by adding free and paid content is a great thing to do.

 

REPS TO KONAMI!

Sounds good, decent price to, actually surprising; people thought any, real extra content fould be pretty pricey when they saw the codec pack price.

Cant wait to get it!

NOTE: just want to point out that i dont think the Reward shop and female soldier are actually apart of this pack, but more of a free update to come at the same time.

MGO is a for real game. I thought it was just supposed to be an afterthought online add-on. Good for fans. I may have to start playing again, but I miss the story elements. YOu know what Metal Gear really needs? An MMORPG. I think the MG universe is big enough and fleshed out enough for that now.

psn id: gingo... never really had a chance to get into mgo but this looks quite a good deal for about £9 which i think is 10 euros ( possibly)

Thats £6.99 in th UK. Its quite epensive but might buy it cause the online will get interested while playing with the new characters and modes/maps.
