Metal Gear Solid 5 gets special edition PS4

To celebrate the launch of Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes next month, Sony will release a special edition PlayStation 4 console in Japan, the company has announced through the Japanese Sony Store.

As you can see in the image above, the console features the well-known Fox emblem and is thusly dubbed the "Fox Edition." The bundle is priced at ¥46,980 (around $460) and includes a copy of the game. It's not clear if Sony plans to offer the Fox Edition in the United States or Europe.

The limited edition Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes PS4 bundle is not much of a surprise, as series creator Hideo Kojima cryptically teased last week that a "[SONY] x [PS4] x [MGS GZ] collaboration initiative is in progress."

Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes, a prequel to Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, launches in the United States on March 18 for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. The PS4 version runs in 1080p, while the Xbox One iteration runs at 720p.
