Metal Gear Survive launch trailer lurches out of the shadows

Konami’s Metal Gear Survive lumbers into US stores today on PS4, PC, and Xbox One, and to mark the occasion we’ve got an undead-flavoured launch trailer for you to have gander at. 

There’s actually a fair few bits of interesting footage to see here, as the trailer shines the spotlight on some new enemy types that we haven’t really seen before. Hopefully by the time you read this you’ll be able to play the game, as some folk in the US have reported a few teething issues.

Metal Gear Survive is out in the UK for PS4, PC, and Xbox One on February 22, and takes place following the events of Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes. However, this time we’re transported to an alternate dimension populated by zombies Wanderers, and it’s up to you and a group of ex-Mother Base soldiers to establish a base camp while fending off the shambling hordes.

The game is noteworthy as the first entry in the venerable stealth-action franchise since creator Hideo Kojima left Konami in fall 2015 after the launch of Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain.
