Metal Gear Survive is getting a Pyramid Head costume

With Halloween simply across the nook, zombie-smashing survival-a-thon Metal Gear Survive is getting further spooky. Konami introduced {that a} limited-time occasion, set to begin Tuesday, will enable gamers to earn Pyramid Head’s signature accent, plus music Silent Hill and Castlevania Games.

The occasion, which begins October 23 and runs via November 6, known as The Research’s Story (Special Edition). Konami didn’t present a complete lot in the best way of particulars – you’ll apparently have the ability to earn battle factors by “digging the base camp” in quest of unlockable objects and equipment.

To take part, you’ll must have first accomplished Metal Gear Survive’s principal story. If you’ve bought that out of the best way, you’ll be eligible to gather the Pyramid Head accent, which helps you to put the angular steel hood (or no matter you name Pyramid Head’s hat) in your characters in game.

I’ve by no means had the prospect to play via the Silent Hill games, however I do know Pyramid Head is a sluggish, menacing homicide monster, so I’m a bit baffled that Metal Gear Survive is together with the character on this manner. But youngsters dressed up as Freddy Krueger for Halloween once I was younger, so I suppose this makes as a lot sense as that.

Besides, Metal Gear Survive is ready in an alternate dimension (I believe?), so there’s nothing that may’t be justified by way of quantum mechanics.

During the Researcher’s Story occasion, you’ll additionally have the ability to accumulate new cassette tapes, which embrace the next music tracks:

• Silent Hill theme
• Divine Bloodlines, from Castlevania Rondo of Blood
• Beginning, from Castlevania Rondo of Blood
• The Tragic Prince, from Castlevania Symphony of the Night

Konami’s post has the remainder of the main points, together with the reprints that can be accessible throughout this occasion. Metal Gear Survive is the primary post-Kojima Metal Gear game, and its departure from the recon stealth motion that made the Metal Gear Solid collection such successful hasn’t precisely received over many new followers. Still, should you’re into swatting zombies with poles, otherwise you actually get pleasure from placing up chain-link fences, it’s bought its personal unusual allure.
