We’ve all been enjoying Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain but it will soon have even more to offer. Metal Gear Online, the competitive multiplayer component of the game, is headed our way in a few short weeks. This video from Tokyo Game Show gives us a taste of what to expect.

The video shows some of the features of the online mode, including avatar creation, class selection, and how matches unfold. Though this is a competitive mode, you will have to work closely with your allies in order to be victorious. Also, despite the emphasis on combat, this is still a very Metal Gear experience and players who use stealth will have something to love as well.

Metal Gear Online will be free to download for the PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One in October.

Below are more MGO gameplay videos from YouTube user ShikasCloudz:
