Let’s forget our Kojima blues and celebrate Metal Gear 2’s 25th anniversary

Long before it became solid, the Metal Gear franchise was already defining the action-stealth genre.

One of the most notable games in the series, Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake, turns 25 years old today. Metal Gear 2 game out for the PC platform MSX2 in 1990 in Japan. It wouldn’t have an official release in the U.S. until 2006, when it was included with Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence. The Metal Gear Solid series would go on to sell over 33 million copies.
