Metal Gear Solid 5 Release Date News: Challenges And Missions Changed? Director Reveals New Details About Game Changes

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain director Hideo Kojima revealed some new details which could add to the replayability of the experience as it relates to  he forma of post-mission analysis and "No Kill, No Alert" challenges, GamingBolt.com reports.

"In some missions there are 'No Kill, No Alert' challenges, and all those challenges are connected by social [rankings] and can be played any number of times. In addition to that, even in the same mission there will be different situations, like different ways to attack and different weather conditions," Kojima informed the website.

"Everything you do will eventually be evaluated at the base. For example, if you bring back the wrong target in a hostage rescue and you should do it again to improve your result. That's the (non-linear) replay value due to the freedom enhanced by an open world."

Komami announced that Metal Gear Solid 5's The Phantom Pain will be 300 times larger than its predecessor Ground Zeroes, opening the prospect of boosts in sales.

Keith Sutherland, 24's lead actor, has been tasked with voice acting the Slithering Snake character, revealing the protagonist's new sound, UberGizmo.com reports.

Konami, the Metal Gear Solid 5's developer, released a nine-minute trailer headlining the game, revealing the opening to Ground Zeroes, the still unexplained 'prologue' to Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, Metro.com reports.

The developer has not announced the exact storyline of Ground Zeroes and has not given much information about it, but implies that it will be available before The Phantom Pain.

Among the features shown off in this new video is that there is still plenty of need to actually be quite sneaky when you are running through the missions, Examiner.com reports.

Two other trailers featuring Metal Gear Solid 5 gameplay were released last week at an event in Tokyo, where they were filmed.

While Konami has not announced an official release date for the game, it is expected to be available on next-generation consoles Playstation 4 and Xbox One by 2014.
