Konami already graced us yesterday with the release date of the upcoming Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, so anything after would just be icing on the cake. Well…icing, meet cake.
Earlier today, Konami served up another announcement, showcasing the games collector’s edition. The Collector’s Edition will only set you back $99.99, which is a pretty fair price for all that’s included. In the bundle, you get a bunch of physical goods, such as:
- Half-scale Replica of Snake’s Bionic Arm (!!!!!!!)
- Collectible SteelBook
- Behind-the-Scenes Documentary and Trailers Blu-Ray Disc
- A Map
- Exclusive Packaging
Obviously, the draw here is the Bionic Arm. Just think of all the things you could do with a bionic arm. The sky is pretty much the limit there. Also found in the collector’s edition are a bunch of digital items, including some Metal Gear Online items:
- Weapon and Shield Pack (Windurger S333 Comba Special Weapon, Adam-ska Special Weapon, Maschinen aktische Pistole 5 Weiss Special Weapon, Rasp Short-Barreled Shotgun Gold Special Weapon, and a Personal Ballistic Shield in Olive Drab, Silver, White, and Gold)
- Cardboard Box (Rocky Terrain, All-Purpose Dryland, and Wetland)
- Snake Costume (Fatigues in Black Ocelot, Gray Urban, Blue Urban, and All-Purpose Dryland)
- “Venom Snake” Emblem
- Metal Gear Online XP Boost
- MGO Items (Metal Gear Rex Helmet, Golden AM MRS-4, and Golden WU S.PISTOL)
For those that aren’t lucky enough to snag one of the CE’s, the game will also have a “Day One Edition”, that has some extra stuff for players:
- A Map
- Adam-Ska Special Weapon
- Personal Ballistic Shield (Silver)
- Cardboard Box (Wetland)
- Fatigues (Blue Urban Snake Costume)
- Metal Gear Online XP Boost
