Development[]

Metal Gear Solid V: The Definitive Experience was first hinted at in July 2016 when Reddit discovered a pre-order page for "Metal Gear Solid V: Definitive Ex" on Amazon UK that contained a placeholder release date of December 31, 2016. The listing was later removed.[1][2] The game's existence was further hinted at a few weeks later when both Dell and Amazon.ca posted listings that stated that Metal Gear Solid V: The Definitive Experience would be released for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on October 11, 2016.[3]

On August 29, 2016, Konami officially confirmed that Metal Gear Solid V: The Definitive Experience would be released for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on October 11, 2016 in North America, on October 13 in Europe, and on November 10 in Japan. It was also announced that the Japanese Xbox One version would only be available via digital download.[4][5][6]

Following the announcement of The Definitive Experience, fans asked the official Metal Gear Twitter account if a completed version of Mission 51 would be included. They stated that it wouldn't as it was additional story content that was cancelled prior to the release of The Phantom Pain. They also stated that contrary to popular belief, the mission isn't the game's ending.[7] Similarly, when asked about the oft-rumored Chapter 3, Konami revealed that it was in fact supposed to be the removal of various nuclear weapons in a community effort, leading to the ending.[8]
