[Administrator]

Following yesterday's early leak, Konami has confirmed MGSV: The Phantom Pain's September 1 release date on Xbox 360, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, and PlayStation 4. The Steam version of the game is launching on September 15. The publisher also revealed details of the Day 1 and Collector's Editions of the game, and promised that the game's dedicated online mode, Metal Gear Online, will be live at launch.
The Collector's Edition, which is set to retail for $99 in the US and £99 in the UK, comes with a bevvy of physical items, including a half-scale replica of Snake's bionic arm, a "collectible" Steel Book, a behind-the-scenes documentary and collection of trailers on Blu-ray, a map, and unique packaging. It will also contain a bunch of DLC items, ranging from weapons like the "Adam-ska Special Handgun", through to new costumes for Snake, and yes, three different types of cardboard boxes.
Those who fork over $59.99 (£59.99) for the Day 1 Edition of the game will only be treated to the physical map, as well as a reduced selection of DLC. Those picking up the PC version on Steam at launch will also have access to the DLC.
