Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain's Unfinished Story Continues to Intrigue Fans 10 Years Later
Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain, released in 2015, left fans with a sense of incompleteness due to a rushed final chapter and a missing mission. Now, a decade later, the game's legacy continues to intrigue players and modders alike.
The game's conclusion was initially labelled as unfinished, with a cutscene depicting Snake approaching Metal Gear Sahelanthropus and a missing 51st mission, 'Kingdom of the Flies'. Despite extensive efforts, no secret ending was discovered. Recently, a group called ModdersHeaven managed to restore elements of the cut mission, offering fans a glimpse into the unfinished story.
Konami has since provided updates on the Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 2, assuring fans that development is progressing. However, the fate of the missing mission and cutscene remains uncertain. The cutscene, found on the DVD of the collector's edition, doesn't significantly resolve the game's narrative. It shows a confrontation between Quiet and Big Boss, which was not integrated into the main game. Such cutscenes are often integrated through updates or DLCs, but there's no official word on this scene's inclusion.
Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain turned 10 in September, and while Konami has given updates on upcoming collections, the mystery of the missing mission and cutscene persists. Fans continue to speculate and modders strive to uncover more of the game's unfinished story, keeping the legacy of this complex and intriguing title alive.
