Metal Gear Online Closing June 12th
02/14/2012 Written by Nick Michetti
Konami has announced that the online game that came with Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Metal Gear Online, will be going offline after four years of service.
On the four-year anniversary of the game’s release, June 12th, service for Metal Gear Online will be brought to a close. Two events will precede the closure of the game, though:
- On March 21st, the Metal Gear Online shop will be brought to a close.
- On April 24th, expansion packs and preset codec message appeal packs will be available for free. Registration for new player characters won’t be available during that time. Reward shop equipment will be available for free, with the exception of “non-sale” items.
Metal Gear Online has remained PlayStation 3 exclusive, although a version of MGO called Metal Gear Arcade was brought to arcades in Japan.
How do you feel about Metal Gear Online‘s service being taken down? Let us know in the comments below!

I actually played the Arcade version more than I did the PS3 version, but I only did play the arcade version about 3 times.
The best multiplayer is coming to an end. Has its problems but its the most fun you would ever have. CQC+ is one of the worst ideas ever implemented, took away any reason to check around doors. Gonna miss such a great experience
Snake? Snake?! SNAAAAAKE?!?!
Why close? Just make everything for free and keep it alive. People will definitely come back and play. At least keep the servers alive and maintain…

MGO really was the best multiplayer experience. It added a whole new level to the first person/third person genre. It was extremely in depth, unique, and ahead of it’s time. I am really disappointed they are getting rid of it, especially since I just got two of my friends into it. My PS3 is pretty much garbage now!
