Metal gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain features a diverse soundtrack of all manner of hits from the 80s. Some of which seem at odds with the potential mass destruction Snake can cause on the battlefield, but having Take On Me play as you take out an entire enemy encampment is quite an experience.

Below is a list of the songs that can be found in Afghanistan and Africa. If you’re looking to expand Snake’s music playlist, you’ll need this guide. As a general tip, once you enter the general location of a cassette tape, keep an ear out for the song to be playing, as it’ll always be booming from a soldier’s radio, and naturally the closer you get, the louder it is.
