Metal Gear Solid V Ground Zeroes

Having previously only been available within the Xbox One and Xbox 360 editions of the game, the Jamais-Vu mission for Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes will now be going multi-platform as it becomes available via a free update from May 1st for both PS3 and PS4. The MGS1 Déjà-Vu mission meanwhile, previously a Playstation exclusive, will become available on Xbox 360/Xbox One the same day.

The MGS1 Déjà-Vu mission reproduces the reduced polygon graphical style of the original game for the PS One, the Jamais-Vu mission meanwhile sees you take control of the cyborg ninja, Raiden.

With the game having been released just over a month ago, a new mission becoming available for the title on all platforms now means that fresh life is to be breathed into the game for all those that own it which should surely put a smile on the face of many.
