This version was later released inside the Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes - Special Disc, along with other extras.
Released 22 December 1987 for Commodore C64/128/MAX, DOS, Family Computer and Nintendo Entertainment System by Konami, published by Ultra Games and Playtronic. Rated 7 by PEGI, L by ClassInd.
