Much like the video game franchise, Metal Gear Solid: The Board Game will focus on stealthy gameplay. Players can control one of four characters with unique abilities – Solid Snake, Meryl Silverburgh, Gray Fox, and Hal “Otacon” Emmerich – and play through one of 6 standalone missions. The game will also include a 14 mission campaign, with the ability to permanently unlock more items that are added to the players’ inventory as they progress. Those who pre-order the Integral Edition of the game will also receive a graphic novel that tells the campaign in comic form. The Integral Version also comes with a 13 cm-tall Metal Gear REX Miniature.
The timing of Metal Gear Solid: The Board Game’s announcement comes just hours after Konami announced Metal Gear Solid Triangle: Snake Eater, a remake of Metal Gear Solid 3. No release date was announced for the video game remake, which will be the first new Metal Gear Solid game in nearly a decade.
Pre-orders for Metal Gear Solid: The Board Game are live on CMON’s website, with the Integral Version costing $100 plus shipping. A retail edition will also be released, although that won’t come with the graphic novel or REX miniature.
