PSN Europe update: Metal Gear Online Beta, Warhawk expansion, and Lair pack now available - Image 1Thanks to a tip from reader Eclipze_, we're letting you guys know that Europe's PlayStation Store has updated with their download for Konami's Metal Gear Online beta.

Following along MGO is the arrival of the equally anticipated Operation Broken Mirror expansion pack for Warhawk.

At a cost of £ 3.99 (about US$ 8 / € 5), this expansion pack will include some tasty new features including new maps, and a force-field emitting APC. Lair players get the free Deadly Dragon Pack, while Grant Theft Auto 4 will be getting the new Everyone’s A Rat video trailer.

If Europe's MGO download is anything like its US port, then it'll require 741 Mb of HD space. The guys over at the PlayStation Europe forums also note that you'll have to pick up another update after you install the game. Just keep these in mind before you take the first steps into joining the fray. Drop by again in case we run into any more updates.

» So is it the same as jap or US?

I just downloaded it from the jap account. And updated it to 1.01 but it says I have to create a konami ID. Is it the same for you guys?

» Well

In my opinion its not that bad pre-ordering Mgs for it because I was going to do it anyways (might as well do it for the beta). But yeah the update does take a very long time.



My Konami game ID is: Eclipse_Dc
