Metal Gear Solid 5 sneaks into October's free PS Plus line-up

Now's your best chance to play the grand finale to Hideo Kojima's Metal Gear Solid series.

Metal Gear Solid 5 certainly had its share of controversy thanks to Hideo Kojima and Konami's public falling out, but that doesn't change one fact: It's a damn fine game. So if you've been holding out on picking up the final chapter of Kojima's MGS series, we have some great news. Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain is on October's PS Plus free games line-up.
