Nvidia outs first Full HD screens showing PC's Metal Gear Solid V

Following on from the recent reveal of the PC edition of Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes, Nvidia has decided to share with us the first Full HD screenshots of this upcoming long-awaited Kojima Productions game. The green team has both listed the enhancements available to PC gamers and provided an interactive comparison tool (example 1 – example 2) for us to see the difference between PC and Sony PlayStation 4 versions of the game. This is the "first game in the mainline series to launch on PC since Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty in 2003," enthuses the Nvidia Blog.

Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes lets gamers play as a 'world renowned' Special Forces soldier by the name of 'Snake'. In this episode your aim is to rescue hostages from a Cuban military base. The game has been a long running franchise, particularly for Sony console fans. Consistent features of the franchise are missions for Snake which involve stealthiness and tactical thinking. However it is possible to have a run at some missions with 'all guns blazing'. The 'FOX Engine' is behind the cinematic graphics in this latest title. A follow up larger game segment called Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain will follow this outing.

Nvidia has compiled a list of enhancements that PC gamers will be able to benefit from playing Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes, as follows -

• 60 FPS frame rate
• Additional deferred lights per scene
• Additional shadows per scene
• Higher-resolution render targets
• Higher-resolution shadows
• Increased detail over distances
• NVIDIA SLI Multi-GPU support
• Options to adjust seven graphics features (Effects, Lighting, Screen Filtering, Shadows, Texture Filtering, Textures)
• Resolution support up to and including 3840x2160 (4K)
• Screen Space Reflections

Late last week Konami published the minimum and recommended specifications for a PC user to enjoy this new game.

Expect the game to be available via Steam from 18^th December.
