The stealth co-op game "Metal Gear Survive" according to Konami is still part of the "Metal Gear Universe" thus, it is still available on the PS4, Xbox One and PC platforms on 2017. "Metal Gear Survive" follows the events of "Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes" wherein the remaining members of the Militaires Sans Frontières are driven to a separate universe where they are relentlessly forced to battle against what they call the Crystalline Zombies; doubly put as the Metal Gear itself.

The stealth element that is widely popular in the "Metal Gear Solid V" series is getting a renewed concept in "Metal Gear Survive." According to Tomotada Tashiro, Konami European president, the stealth element has been refreshed, but not to the point where they sacrifice the unique co-op setting of the game.
