Judging by the achievements alone, it looks like Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes will consist of one long mission, followed by several Side Ops, several time-padding collectibles to find, some sort of trial system (perhaps some stretch of VR training?) and a console-specific bonus Op. The Xbox mission is Jamais Vu, starring Raiden, while Deja Vu involves Metal Gear Solid 1-era Snake.
Hopefully game director Hideo Kojima can pull off some major depth and content when it comes to Ground Zeroes. He’s taking a big risk with Metal Gear Solid V proper by splitting it up in two halves, especially with the intention of having consumers spend ~$100 total for the entirety of the story. Perhaps in an open world stealth environment, the experience might be worth it.
We’ll have to find out when Metal Gear Solid V releases for the PS4, Xbox One, PS3 and Xbox 360 on March 18th.
