Metal Gear Solid Teams Up with the Ultimate Stealth Companion
The Metal Gear series stands as a titan in the gaming world, but its latest collaboration is sure to catch fans off guard. This October, Konami will make a surprising appearance at CatCon, sharing the spotlight with the internet sensation, One Eared Uno.
In a clever marketing move, Konami is set to showcase exclusive Metal Gear-themed pet products on October 10 and 11. Attendees will have the opportunity to snag items from a unique cat line inspired by the franchise. Among the highlights are cat scratch boxes designed to resemble the series’ iconic stealth box, perfect for turning your feline into a stealthy operative. To celebrate the upcoming release of Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 on August 27, plush toys and cat collars inspired by Peace Walker and Guns of the Patriots will also be up for grabs.
For cat enthusiasts who are also fans of Metal Gear, these products could become rare finds in the future. Available only at CatCon and the OKS Gear Shop during the event, their limited nature makes them prime targets for scalpers. Fans hoping to acquire these items later may find themselves paying a premium.
As an added bonus, visitors to the Konami booth will have the chance to meet the viral cat influencer One Eared Uno, who boasts an impressive following of 3 million on TikTok, over 200,000 on Facebook and Instagram, and 350,000 subscribers on YouTube. A meet-and-greet is scheduled for October 10 at 2 p.m. PT.
But this event isn’t solely about marketing; Konami’s presence at CatCon aims to draw attention to a cause that benefits countless cats. The convention features thousands of cat products, and it also serves as a platform for finding homes for hundreds of homeless cats. Last year, CatCon saw 1,500 cats adopted and raised $400,000 for feline charities that support cats in need.
Whether you’re a devoted cat lover or a die-hard Metal Gear fan, make sure to swing by the Konami booth at CatCon 2026 for exclusive merchandise available only during the event.
