New content for Metal Gear Online

Gene Expansion and Gene Expansion Plus are here, adding three maps, a new game mode and playable characters to Metal Gear Online.

The first expansion packs for Metal Gear Online have arrived and can be downloaded from the in-game MGO Shop now.

The new maps are Coppertown Conflict, featuring wide streets for close to medium range combat; an intricate labyrinth of underground tunnels called Tomb of Tubes and Virtuous Vista - an outdoor map covered in natural terrain that's great for snipers. Also included are the brand new Survival mode and the chance to play as Meryl and Akiba from Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots and use their special abilities to your advantage on the battlefield.

Completing the Gene Expansion pack are a new Reward Shop for trading Reward Points and the ability to create female playable characters. And if you download Gene Expansion Plus, you'll get all the content from Gene Expansion and a MGO Extra Character Slot.

Metal Gear Online just got bigger and better, so head over to the MGO Shop and choose your pack.
