Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain coming in 2015

Let me tell you something you already know. Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain will release sometime in 2015. I don't work on the game and even I can tell you that.

But in case you need to hear that from someone more official than myself, here you go.

At this year's Tokyo Game Show, Hideo Kojima said that MGS5​ will release sometime in 2015. So there you go.

He also showed off some new gameplay that focused on a sniper, only known as Quiet, and his interaction with Big Boss and the Diamond Dogs. He was Big Boss' partner in the demo shown, showing off cooperative stealth gameplay. With the ability to turn invisible and move around undetected like a phantom, he parachuted in to sneak through the jungle, riddled with guards. Quiet took out enemies with a sniper rifle while Big Boss snuck around.

If you want to watch the gameplay, check it out below. Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain releases on the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, PC, Xbox 360 and Xbox One.
