New update for Metal Gear Solid V adds Ocelot for FOB missions, new swimsuits and more

Konami has released details on an upcoming Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain update releasing next week, on August 1st. This update allows you to use Ocelot as a playable character in the FOB mode, giving you some advantages in firefights such as the ability to reload faster and ricochet bullets. Some new costumes will also be added, new grades for the wormhole generator will be available, and minor issues will be fixed as well. Note: this update is only available on Xbox One, PS4 and PC, and not on PS3 and Xbox 360.

Ocelot is finally available in FOB missions ! 

You can play as Ocelot to infiltrate FOBs. You cannot change the uniform or the head option, but Ocelot has a slightly increased camouflage value, and he reloads and draws his weapons faster. He can use one pistol in each hand with the TORNADO-6. He can also use ricochet bullets on marked enemies.
*The defense value matches the highest defense value within the unlocked battle dresses.
