The trailer for the game has been released, but no official release date has been set. It's called Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes. Now, there is a sequel for Peace Walker is currently being developed. After you beat the game you keep playing and there is even a better REAL ending (the first ending was a fake!) and even after that you can replay old bosses to uncover secret tapes from some of the characters that further reveals more information (this game can be uber sad at time). I can only say so much without spoiling anything. I never played portable Ops, but Peace Walker includes A LOT of background to the characters of the series and really gives you a better understanding. They take place after Metal Gear Solid 3 and are meant to be prequels to Metal Gear Solid 4. It was Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. Now, there are two other games to the Metal Gear Solid Series made for play station portable. You can't skip over anything in this series if you hope to understand the plot.

There are more plot twists, credits appear to end but a uber long video sequence wraps things up and more credits roll. At the end of every act, everything you knew before is basically undone by plot twists.Īfter you beat the game, you think you know everything that has happened, but no. It features a lot of characters from the previous games and provides major closure (might make you cry here and there, very emotional, as was Metal Gear Solid 3). I guarantee this will confuse the heck out of you. Metal Gear Solid 4 is divided up into 5 acts. It introduces some new characters as well as setting up some old characters for the next game, Metal Gear Solid 4. Metal Gear Solid 3 is a prequel to the entire Metal Gear series. It is confusing as hell, and you have to figure out towards the end what is really happening and what isn't. Now Metal Gear Solid 2 is a direct sequel to Metal Gear Solid. The worst of them is in Metal Gear Solid 4 where there is like over an hour's worth of extra scenes after you beat the game that just wraps up the whole series. In fact, after the credits of each of the games, there is a plot twist. The problem is that there is a plot twist like every scene. To understand the series, you have to play every single game or watch a walk through. Also, I think some versions of the PS2 game Metal Gear Solid 3 come with them.

Also, if you have the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection for Xbox 360 or PS3, they include the original 2 games as part of Metal Gear Solid 3. In Metal Gear Solid (Metal Gear Solid:The Twin Snake), they give you a detailed, retconned synopsis of what happened in the original two games.

The Metal Gear Solid series is a sequel to the old MSX/NES Metal Gear series (Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2:Solid Snake).
