Konami announced today that Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes is getting an official price drop.The boxed version of the game is now available across Xbox 360, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, and PlayStation 4 for $20.

If you're in the market for a digital copy, you can buy the game today on Xbox Live and PlayStation Network for $20 on Xbox 360 and PS3. However, the digital version continues to sell for $30 across Xbox One and PlayStation 4. Looks like a boxed copy is the cheapest way to go right now.

A PC version of Ground Zeroes, which supports 4K resolution, will launch through Steam in December.

Set in 1975 on a prison base called Camp Omega, Ground Zeroes challenges players to infiltrate the base using a combination of stealth and action mechanics. Despite controversy over its length, Ground Zeroes has sold over 1 million copies to date.

Ground Zeroes is the prologue to Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, which will launch in 2015 for Xbox One and PS4. A PC version of the game is also in the works, though Konami has not announced when it will be released.

<< LINK REMOVED >> I got it for 5 (PS4), and was very happy with that price. Took me several hours to do every challenge perfectly and get every achievement. Not much content, but re-playing it to do better was a great time.

It should have been the price all along..


I got it on a PSN sale a few weeks ago for 13$, I would say that at this price it made sense.

What?! I actually just recently started replaying FF7 on Steam and let me tell you, those graphics are pretty painful to look at compared to today's games. Granted, I love the story but even the gameplay is a little boring and a chore compared to many games today. To say Ground Zeroes is similar is ludicrous. However, the length of FF7 demo compared to Ground Zeroes is probably spot on, FF7 demo can take a while to complete if you do everything.

Still too expensive. I'll wait until it's bundled with a copy of the full game. And that will happen eventually.

This should have only ever been a $15 game you downloaded from the online store. Ridiculous that people paid anymore than that for this and I'm a MG fan.

Really, MGR, I was sooo hook into that game. The boss battles were fun, the music was cool, and it was one of the best MGS spin-off around.

@unreal849 @rickphoenixxx It has an odd feel to it, doesn't seem to flow well as an action game. It's like, I just wanna be snake and wear boxes more.

This never should have cost more than $15 to begin with.

Good thing I redbox Ground Zero for Xbox 360 and later on, I'll get it used for my PS4 so Kojima won't get my money.
