Konami Offers Official Metal Gear Solid Boxes (for Your Cat) – Interest

If you thought your cat was sneaky before, it can now become the ultimate espionage agent with the new Metal Gear cat boxes. The Metal Gear franchise announced the limited-edition Metal Gear cat boxes on Wednesday, and Konami is offering both the Pink Love Box and Barrel Box variants.

The Pink Love Box and Barrel Box will be available at the Konami booth at CatCon, which will take place at the Pasadena Convention Center in Southern California between October 10 and 11. OKS Gear is also offering the boxes online during the convention. (OKS Gear previously offered a Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol.2 cat scratch box during PAX West earlier this month, but that box featured that game collection’s real-life logo instead of in-game graphics.)

Hideo Kojima created the Metal Gear series in 1987 for the MSX2 and later for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). A sequel, Snake’s Revenge, debuted for the NES and subsequently the MSX2 as Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake in 1990. The series went on a near-decade hiatus until the release of Metal Gear Solid for the PlayStation in 1998. The Metal Gear Solid series has seen several sequels and re-releases. The latest release in the Metal Gear Solid series is 2026’s compilation Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2.

The Metal Gear Solid series oft sees players take control of special forces operative Solid Snake as he becomes embroiled in a global conspiracy.
