Konami Releases New Content and Shadow Moses Map for Metal Gear Online

Komani has just recently announced some new content for Metal Gear Online. These include a new map, character and reward mode for Metal Gear Online, the PlayStation 3 squad-based, tactical-espionage action title based on the popular Metal Gear Solid franchise.

The famed map “Icebound Inferno” is coming to the game, and is most well-known for being the “Shadow Moses” map from the first Metal Gear Solid game. The map features an Arctic Island that consists of a large snowfield with buildings of varying heights, and is best suited for medium to long-range combat.

In addition, the download allows players to use Old Snake as a unique character and the Octo-cam suit as a weapon. In a twist, Old Snake will not become completely invisible when using the suit, but will automatically blend with the environment. The latest download will also include an Auto Matching Reward mode in which the winner of the match wins more reward points than normal. When playing an individual match in this mode, only the winner receives the reward points while in a team match, the team member ranked first will win the reward points.

So if you have MGS4 for the PS3, and are interested in the online mode, go download this content and check it out!
