Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain Ocelot PlayArts Kai Figure Release Date Revealed

Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain, the new entry of the Metal Gear Solid series launching in around one month in all regions on consoles and PC, is going to receive plenty of interesting merchandise, as showcased last week during the Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain Boot Camp 2015, where some new details on the actual game have also been revealed.
Among the many items inspired by the new stealth game by Hideo Kojima releasing in the near future is one really beautiful PlayArts Kai figure representing Ocelot. Today Konami has confirmed that the figure will be released in Japan during October 2015 for the price of 12,800 yen. You can check out some images of the figure right below.
More on Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain is going to be coming soon. Next week the game will be available in playable form during Gamescom 2015, which will be held in Cologne, Germany. Another gameplay presentation focused on the Mother Base features is also going to be released soon, as Hideo Kojima himself showed some picture taken during the actual production of the presentation a few days ago.
Last week the download sizes for the Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 versions have been revealed by the Japanese PlayStation Store. The download size for both versions is much smaller than the ones for other recent big releases so it shouldn’t take too long for fans to download the full game from PSN.
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain will be released in all regions this September on PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One and PC. The game’s prologue chapter, Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes, is now available on all formats, offering a small yet nice taste of the open-world gameplay experience featured in the main game.

Skyrim Paid Mods Take Another Hit from Bethesda

If you play video games, you’ve probably played Skyrim, Bethesda’s decade-old open-world RPG. It’s become a meme after endless rereleases. The company wants to sell paid, player-created mods again after not getting the message from players.
Bethesda tested selling Skyrim mods on Steam in 2015, generously giving modders 25% of the proceeds. After Steam’s 30% platform fee, Bethesda would receive 45%, the “current industry standard.”. After fan backlash, Bethesda removed paid mods, and Steam refunded all purchases.
In subsequent years, Bethesda’s Creation Club added user-created content to Fallout 4 and Skyrim Special Edition, requiring that it not violate lore. Bethesda could also release official Creation Club content on PlayStation.
The developer revealed Bethesda Game Studios Creations and a major update for the oldest RPG today. Players can still upload free mods, but creators can now apply for the Verified Creator Program. Certified modders can charge for their work. Since paid moderators no longer have lore-friendly restrictions, expect chaos.
This is already upsetting the community, and the line between official Creation Club content and moderators is blurring. The fact that paid mods disable PlayStation Trophies but not free Creation content is a disaster.
What do you think of Skyrim’s sorry state? Still playing? How’s the PlayStation Creation Club content?
