Hold onto your cardboard boxes, gamers! Konami is diving headfirst into the world of feline fandom with a brand new line of Metal Gear Solid merchandise… specifically designed for cats. Yes, you read that right. Forget Snake’s tactical gear; it’s all about scratching posts and plushie Big Bosses now.
A Purrfectly Tactical Collection
Announced to coincide with the upcoming release of Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2, this exclusive collection will be available at CatCon 2026. Konami is setting up shop (literally) at a cat convention, offering fans two days in October to snag these unique items. Prepare for an experience that’s both nostalgic and utterly bizarre.
The lineup includes cat-scratch boxes modeled after the iconic crates used by Big Boss and Old Snake, plushie toys inspired by characters from Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker and Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, and even themed cat collars. For those who can’t make it to CatCon, these goodies will also be available through OKS Gear Shop during that limited window.
But wait, there’s more! Attendees will have the opportunity to meet Kat Curtis and the feline influencer “One Eared Uno.” This dynamic duo will be featured in a special playthrough video of Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2, promising both entertainment and adorable cat cameos.
Don’t Try Sneaking In With a Cardboard Box
CatCon 2026 runs October 10-11. While the idea of sneaking in with a generic cardboard box might seem tempting, remember that cats are notoriously drawn to such things. Your plans could be foiled by the very creatures you’re trying to impress.
For those who prefer their cardboard boxes virtual, Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 launches on August 27 for PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. This collection offers a fantastic return to the past, bringing back beloved titles like Peace Walker and Ghost Babel, while also liberating Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots from its PS3 exclusivity.
So, whether you’re a hardcore gamer or a devoted cat lover (or both!), Konami’s new Metal Gear Solid merchandise is sure to bring a smile to your face. Just be prepared for some serious feline competition at CatCon 2026!
