Developed by Kojima Productions and designed specifically for the iPhone and iPod touch, Metal Gear Solid Touch unfolds in five chapters over a span of the 20 stages with familiar enemies attempting to keep Old Snake from accomplishing his mission.

Metal Gear Solid Touch features twenty levels of gameplay and well-known antagonists from the past. The title is set in the immersive world of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots and created with the concept of allowing players to "touch" upon the world of Metal Gear Solid.
