Want to play as Raiden or Vamp inMetal Gear Onlinethis March? Yeah, so do we.
Today, Konami announced the third expansion pack forMGO, ‘SCENE.’ It will have several additions: three maps, gear, the aforementioned characters, and what Konami PR describes as “more.” Of course, no map or armor has the potential to beat playing as Raiden or Vamp; Unless, Konami breaks down in a few months and allows players to drive RAY around during deathmatches.
While RAY won’t be available — at least not yet — there is a new payment method available for ‘SCENE.’ Konami will begin accepting PayPal pre-orders for the downloadable content throughthis broken linkto theMGOStore. No, this isn’t a phishing scam — Konami actually are welcoming pre-orders for the downloadable content. (And yeah, they sent us a bad link because the pre-orders won’t open until a week before launch.)
Anyway, those who choose to pre-order ‘SCENE’ will receive a Cardboard Man helmet for being a good sport and giving Konami money early. Also, a video of the content will be available for download over PSN on February 26.
Hit the jump for the press release that also lightly details the three new maps.
