A New Metal Gear Online Game is in the Works

If you're mourning the loss of Metal Gear Online when its servers were shut down in 2012, you can rejoice the fact that a new online game is in the works and is being developed alongside Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain.

According to CVG, Hideo Kojima confirmed that Kojima Productions' LA studio is working on a multiplayer Metal Gear game.

Kojima also teased that the Phantom Pain will have an innovative new feature "that hasn't been done before" and will be a "big surprise." We hope this means that we'll get to wear more Major Raikov masks, but we doubt it.

Metal Gear Solid 5 will feature an open world with vehicles, real-time weather effects, a day and night cycle and even better close-quarters combat action. Hopefully, we'll see these features transfer over to the new Metal Gear Online.

Let us know what you think about a new MGO and tell us if you'd play it.
