Taking place nine years after the events of MGSV: Ground Zeroes and the fall of Mother Base, Snake a.k.a. Big Boss, awakes from a nine year coma. The game resumes the story in 1984, with the Cold War still as the backdrop, which continues to shape a global crisis. Snake's journey takes him into a world where he is driven by a need for revenge and the pursuit of a shadow group, XOF.
Hideo Kojima, head of Kojima Productions, continues to ambitiously explore mature themes such as the psychology of warfare and the atrocities that result from those that engage in its vicious cycle. One of the most anticipated games of the year with its open-world design, photorealistic visual fidelity and feature-rich game design, MGSV: The Phantom Pain will leave its mark as one of the hallmarks in the gaming industry for its cinematic storytelling, heavy themes, and immersive tactical gameplay.

Brilliant Game. The interaction of systems like weather/enemies/weapons with the world is really amazing. Enjoyed it a lot even though the earlier MGS were not really for me.
Mind blowing.. Great game and super fun of over 200 hours of exciting stealth gameplay..
Incredible gameplay. One of the best games on PS4
Incredible depth. Incredible gameplay. Incredible graphics. Almost limitless ways to accomplish missions. However, the game story is not finished, and it explains why Konami and Kojima went their separate ways.
One of the best games on the PS4. The main missions are fun, but the side ops do become repetitive quickly. Overall a very good game.
A very good game part from the fact it starts to repeat missions that you have already done. But still worth the rent and play.
The game is polished, incredibly fun and addictive. The only down side is the obviously incomplete narrative and repetitive side ops
excellent game
A very good game, although bit odd at times! Open world is beautiful, if a little empty of life. Main missions were quite fun and different, though the side ops became repetitive very quickly. Not quite the game i was hoping for but still worth renting.
The free world stack of games is awesome. This game is the best of the military styled. You are also responsible for hiring and firing of your special secret organisation. Loads of new gadgets and vehicles too. Only thing to be careful of is its a hard game.
