Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes price change announced

Konami has reduced the price for next-gen Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes from £39.99 to £29.99.

The change in price, according to the firm, matches the digital price for PS4 and Xbox One as well as the retail pricing for the physical editions for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 systems.

The digital version of the game for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 will remain £19.99.

Konami said the price change “aims to provide as many people as possible an opportunity to experience” Kojima Productions’ new FOX Engine and the first installment in the two-part MGS5 experience.

Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain, the second and final part, will launch on both current and next-gen systems at a later date.  MGS5: Ground Zeroes is out March 18 in North America and March 20 in Europe.
