Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain Will Be Bundled With NVIDIA’s GPUs

31 Comments

It’s no secret that NVIDIA is helping Konami with the PC version of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. And while we don’t know whether the game will feature any exclusive PC graphical settings like Ground Zeroes, we do know that the game will come bundled with NVIDIA’s GeForce graphics cards.

This information was leaked by Reddit and was confirmed by Newegg. Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain will replace the Batman: Arkham Knight deal.

As Newegg’s Reddit member Support guy wrote:

“Hi everyone! We had a little slip up and posted this deal ahead of schedule. It is not currently available, but stay tuned, it will be soon! Newegg Support -Tori”

Tori did not reveal the GPUs for which this deal will be for, though our guess is that the game will bundled with NVIDIA’s GTX970, GTX980 and GTX980Ti (and perhaps the Titan cards).

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain releases on the PC on September 15th!

    This will be a very good optimized game and fun to play in that open world
    ultra 60 FPS
    PS: i just hope they will not add GAMEWORKS!

    • PcRules

      Yeah it will be.
      But dont say stupid things like you dont like gameworks bla bla.

      Havent you heard that you WONT have to use those features mate.

      It’s just that simple, and Gameworks is great. Only a AMD turd says things like that 😉

        i like gameworks in Batman Arkham Origin and Borderlands,Metro games but recent ones with gameworks runs like a pile of sh**

        • applejack

          what’s not clear about the fact you can turn off GameWorks effects ?
          also all the games you mentioned had performance issues at launch.

          • Silviu

            but why the original game have to suffer i mean recent titles really put some nasty bad image on gameworks
            FC4,Witcher 3,Unity,Batman etc and for some cool extra particles/effects/hair you will get like -30 FPS and thats not worth it

        • PcRules

          Alright fair enough, havent played the latest titles as I have no gaming comp :/
          But will build a new nice one in fall/winter. Cant wait to be back to pc gaming as my Ps4 is total garbage!

          Well lets hope for the better then at Gameworks…It was awesome as you said with the Metro and the older Batman games!

          • Silviu

            again as i said Batman runs 1000x better than that crap console port Witcher 3.

  • The PC Master Race

    [Feeling right intensifies]

  • weirdling

    Oh no! That is definitely not an auspicious start.

    Every single game that Nvidia has bundled with their cards recently has had seriously rocky launches.

    • Silviu

      not on this one !

    • crazysapertonight

      only project cars

  • Miura Cansadão

    bad vibes

  • FasterThanFTL

    If I already had not played MGS V: Ground Zeroes I would be extremely worried about this partnership but I have good feeling that MGS V: The Phantom Pain on PC will be a well optimized and polished game.

  • archaven

    LOL. In before the 30FPS locked, missing textures, bad framerates that caused by GW 😛

    • NAVORD

      Prove that’s GW fault you little AMD sht.

  • In Kojima we trust !!!

    GOTY

    • Silviu

      we do!!

    • arkon

      Only you maybe.
      Gameforks + Kepler=FAIL.
      Goty will be: GTA V or The Witcher 3 or Fallout 4,not this crap.

      • No !!!

      • TheBeard

        I think the only think crap here is your brain for not even acknowledging the game being a contender. It defies all logic.

  • In case others haven’t realised, Hideo Kojima always overkills his game series in terms of stability.

  • John Mellinger

    Nvidia should do the right thing and give this to people who got the broken Batman game in their GTX bundle.

    • archaven

      IF i’m Nvidia i’ll be hammering WB and Rocksteady instead. They are their partner after all and they got shafted by them.

    • Silviu

      they should give a copy of MGSV and a copy of fixed Batman

  • Kyle Jackson

    Uh oh, we’ve been here before.

  • TracedInAir

    My 980 Ti SLI machine is ready for 4k Phantom Pain!

  • HITMANxsv

    Ground zeroes was incredibly well optimized (besides the mouse pointer not being useful), hopefully Phantom pain will be up to the same standards as Ground zeroes was, and knowing Kojima, it will./

  • Zeusi

    So sad to see another title get ruined. *Tearry eye*

    • John Mellinger

      Not going to happen since one of the main reasons why Konami is letting Kojima go is because he is the one who pushed for better PC development. That is why we got such a sweet version of Metal gear GZ. Not to mention it had better everything over the PS4 version.

      Plus Konami is more interested in Mobile and low dev cost games as well as pachinko machines.

  • Ginryu

    why people say it is ruined? Ground Zeroes had Nvidia logo as well(for some reason i remmebered amd logo for this game for a long time) so it’s not like we didn’t expect Nvidia’s support. GZ ran very well probably the best optimized game in recent years (it was small though so that helped but it was very well optimized).

  • Bruce Campbell

    Game Works? Check.
    PS4 marketed game with a PS4 Metal Gear themed console, after we saw Watch Dogs get effects removed and Batman AK not even get PS4 effects like rain on Batman’s coat? Check.
    BS Nvidia Gameworks video with sped up footage and showing effects like rain on Batman’s coat which was not even in the PC version? Incoming.
    Kojima leaving this POS company? Check.

    Don’t believe their lies. Wait for reviews. If you preorder ANY PS4 marketed game, especially from a Japanese publisher who has long ties with Sony, after seeing Watch Dogs and Batman AK? You are an imbecile. Anyways have fun with John Mellinger selling you all things Nvidia. He pumped up Batman the same way before release…
