Sony PSP Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops - Image 1 Konami Digital Entertainment's Kojima Studios division has just announced that Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops Plus (Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops+) for the Sony PlayStation Portable has just gone gold and is currently in its UMD manufacture stage. MPO+ is set for a North American release on November 13, 2007.

Konami describes MPO+ as the stand-alone multiplayer addition to the acclaimed 2006 Sony PSP release Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops (MPO) which follows the story of Big Boss and his FOX Unit in the events that took place after Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater.

Konami in states in its press release:

MPO+ includes a new single player mode, "Infinity Mission," in which players must advance from start to finish through increasingly difficult stages, gathering weapons and recruiting high-level comrades to build up their units.


It was also mentioned that "additional multiplayer modes such as the Shooting Range to test player's shooting skills in a deathmatch environment and a Training Mode to practice and sharpen their game controls will challenge even the most experienced tactical fighters."

Metal Gear Series fans will be happy to know that some of the elements included in Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops+ will bring about nostalgic bliss. Among the maps is an updated version of the REX hangar from the original Metal Gear Solid where Solid Snake and Liquid Snake fought their epic battles. Among the characters recruitable in MPO+ will be Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty hero Raiden as well as Old Snake from Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots.

Those who are thinking twice about spending for an updated version of MPO will also appreciate the affordable price point set by Konami Digital. MPO+ will sell for a suggested retail price of US$ 19.99 to make this one a sweet deal.

 » So we are getting MPO+ too?

If we're getting this, then what is MPO Infinite Mission? This is interesting indeed...

I think MPO+ is only a multiplayer expansion with a few shooting range levels. Thats why its suggested retail price is so cheap ($19.99).

Infinity Mission will be an expansion to MPO and will continue the story of MPO. That's my understanding.

I meant to say MPO Infinite War. It's "another" title. I posted it on QJ not too long ago. Check back a few pages.

 » MPO+ extras in the original game?

Has it been said, that will you be able to use the new characters and weapons of MPO+ in the singleplayer of MPO?
I understood both will be fit on the same UMD.

 » Actually MPO+ doesnt add to the story of the original

MPO, that SP mode is only for those that wanna train and recruit there soldiers, so no it does not add any story to Portable Ops, there just training missions to train your recuits and such, thats what they originally said about it.
