The closed studios are working on the latest version of MGS V's online mode "METAL GEAR ONLINE", which is expected to distribute large updates in November, and will release the PC version in 2016 as well. Regarding the development and operation of the METAL GEAR SOLID series, it is not clear which department in the company is responsible, and I am wondering how Konami will respond.
