The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A tightly paced blend of careful infiltration and dramatic storytelling where every corridor feels like a high-stakes thriller you're living through rather than watching.

About

Metal Gear Solid: Integral is an expanded version of the original game. It includes most of the changes and additions that were made in the NTSC-U/C version of the original Metal Gear Solid as well as new features unique to this release, including a third disc consisting almost entirely of VR training missions.

What players say

The definitive expanded edition of a landmark cinematic stealth game, layering 300+ tense VR missions and English voicing onto an acclaimed sneak-don't-fight experience; demanding in spots but fair and revered by Japanese fans.
