Template:Metal Gear chronology

Taken from the official Metal Gear website.

Note: Non-canon titles, including Snake's Revenge, Ghost Babel, and the Acid games should be omitted from inclusion. Other games in the series like Revengeance have questionable status regarding whether or not they are canon, but are currently excluded from official material. The full names and numbers of each game are given in the main template. Additionally, the dates given in this template are the years in which the games take place, not when they were released. For example, while the original Metal Gear Solid game was released in 1998, it takes place in 2005.
