Original story
Games The Shop has listed Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes for preorder on eBay, almost confirming rumblings that E-xpress Interactive will distribute Konami games in India going forward.
Origin Games had announced this past weekend that it will no longer distribute for Konami in India, raising doubts over whether Hideo Kojima’s latest would make it to Indian stores shelves. The game being listed by Games The Shop indicates that E-xpress is the new distributor for the Japanese publisher.
Ground Zeroes is available for preorder on eBay at Rs 1,999 for PS4, PS3 and Xbox 360.
We’ve reached out to E-xpress to find out if it is indeed the new distributor for Konami and when the game is expected to hit stores in India.
