Big Boss returns in this latest edition of the Metal Gear Solid franchise, sneaking his way on to the next-generation platforms for the first time. Those looking for the full Metal Gear Solid experience might be a little disappointed as Ground Zeroes is a smaller chapter in a larger whole, similar to the Tanker Chapter in MGS2.  Set in 1975 Ground Zeroes  takes place between Peace Walker and The Phantom Pain. Snake is sent on a mission to rescue Paz and Chico from Camp Omega. This slice of MGS V offers quite a few side missions in addition to a 2 – 3 hour campaign.
