Metal Gear Survive might not be a continuation of the acclaimed Metal Gear series’ storyline, but it will offer some content from one of the previous games.
For players who partook in playing Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, you’ll be able to access this special gear with little effort on your part. As long as you meet a couple of easy requirements that basically just involve agreeing to some terms and conditions and playing Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain with the same account that you use to start Metal Gear Survive, you’ll instantly have access to these unique items.

The items that players will receive won’t have an impact on the gameplay itself, though they will serve as an indication to other players that you encounter online that this isn’t your first Metal Gear rodeo. An MGO3 name plate, a signature eyepatch accessory, a Diamond Dogs name plate, and a Metal Gear Ray accessory are the items that’ll be available for returning players, all of which can be seen through Konami’s blog post.
Konami’s announcement about the bonus item incentives also explained exactly how players will receive their items through the use of a nine-digit code and some previous saved data.
