Nuclear Disarmament Cutscene Triggered in Metal Gear Solid V Despite Remaining Nukes

Games With Gold

Two and a half weeks before the release of Metal Gear Survive, a new cutscene has been triggered in Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, however only for players on Xbox One and Steam.

Fans knew about the scene already, as data-miners had found and posted the scene on YouTube a while ago, but until now, there was no legitimate way a player could get it other than having every nuclear bomb on the platform of their choice disarmed.

The most recent official count was posted by the Japanese Metal Gear twitter account, saying that PS4 users have 1942 nukes, PS3 users 1054, Xbox One users 331, Xbox 360 users 398 and Steam users 7533.

Fans are not sure if it was intended, at Reddit user fritz170596 posted a chat log with Konami,  who seemed to be “looking into it”, which seems to indicate that it wasn’t intended.

Was Konami hacked? Was it a publicity stunt for Metal Gear Survive? Hopefully, we’ll find out soon.
