Metal Gear Solid V- The Phantom Pain -v1.15 A... 【UHD 2025】

Every base in Afghanistan or Africa is a playground. Need to extract a prisoner? You can snipe guards from 300m, call in a sleeping gas airstrike, fulton a supply container with yourself hanging off it, or simply drive a tank through the front gate.

This is the best playing stealth-action game ever made. Full stop.

PC / PS4 / Xbox One (Tested on current hardware with all patches) Metal Gear Solid V- The Phantom Pain -v1.15 A...

The Phantom Pain at v1.15 is the best unfinished game ever made. It hurts to love it. But you will love it.

The game famously ends twice. After a climactic mission (Chapter 1), the credits roll. Then "Chapter 2: Race" begins—a repetitive series of hard-mode versions of old missions. The real ending, the truth behind the "Phantom Pain," is locked behind grinding side ops and waiting for your base to develop. Every base in Afghanistan or Africa is a playground

The Opening Hour You wake up in a hospital. Bandaged, broken, and confused. Flames roar. A floating boy in a gas mask stares at you. A man made of fire walks through bullets. Within 20 minutes, you’ve crawled past dying patients, witnessed supernatural horror, and ridden a horse while a burning whale leaps over a helicopter.

But if you want a tactical espionage —a game where a plan comes together, falls apart, and you improvise by throwing a smoke grenade, grabbing a guard, and using his own grenade to blow up a comms tower—there is nothing better. This is the best playing stealth-action game ever made

(Subtract 2 points if you need a coherent story. Add 5 points if you love fultoning sheep.)

More importantly, this patch fixes the glaring early issues: The online resource drain has been rebalanced, the FOB (Forward Operating Base) infiltration lag is reduced, and you can finally skip the helicopter ride cutscenes.

The competitive base invasions are still active but niche. High-level players have laser-guided rocket hands and sleeping gas mines. If you ignore FOBs, you'll miss some high-tier gear but can finish the whole single-player just fine. The resource grind is much kinder in v1.15 than at launch.

By version 1.15, Kojima Productions (and later Konami’s support team) have ironed out nearly every technical wrinkle. The framerate on PS4/Pro and Xbox One X is rock-solid 60fps. Load times are snappy. The infamous “nuclear disarmament” event is technically still there (even if nearly impossible without modding), and all the extra DLC (the sneaking suits, the EVA- themed fatigues, the weapon colors) are included.
