Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is an action-adventure game being developed by Kojima Productions which is due to be published by Konami for the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One.
A direct sequel to Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes, the game features new stealth actions, real passage of time, weather and environmental changes, and open-world gameplay.
In the aftermath of the events in Ground Zeroes, Big Boss falls into a coma for nine years and upon awakening forms a new mercenary group, the Diamond Dogs, assuming the codename "Punished Snake". In search of the men responsible for MSF's destruction, he ventures to Afghanistan during the Soviet war, where he encounters former rival, Ocelot. While initially driven to exact revenge, he soon unearths a plot by the Cipher organization to develop a weapon with the potential to surpass even the Metal Gear system.
