Konami has recently released a number of new shots and pieces of art for the upcoming PSP exclusive, Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. Since the rest of this entry will literally be filled with images, we will mention now that Peace Walker is slated to be released on March 18 in Japan and May 25 in North America.
The shots are taken from the game's single-player, multiplayer, and also include artistic renders of the game's characters and some in-game models. While it may be hard to believe, these are not all of the assets released. For the full pack Konami has graciously hosted them on their download page, which can be found right here. There are some character models and a number of in-game shots that we did not post here that can be found in that file.

The first major reveal is the Mother Base offshore plant, which acts as a hub for items and personnel collected within the game. During the course of METAL GEAR SOLID: PEACE WALKER, users can recruit felled adversaries and transport them to the Mother Base sea rig by using the Fulton Recovery System. Recruited soldiers each have unique attributes that allow them to support Snake and other characters in a variety of ways. By gathering more staff, players will be able to expand Mother Base and gain access to new functions. Mother Base also acts as a development area for Snake, where collated information can be used to create and also upgrade all-new armaments .
METAL GEAR SOLID: PEACE WALKER also introduces new AI Weapons – giant unmanned behemoths that Snake must overcome to complete his mission. These include hover, airborne, and tank-style vehicles. Each AI Weapon can speak and even sing during battle using VOCALOID technology, hinting at a surprising level of intelligence.
