Seemingly not content enough with the release of both Ceramic White and Satin Silver versions the PS3, Japanese weekly games magazine Famitsu reports that a new Steel version of Sony’s machine will arrive in conjunction of the release of Konami’s Metal Gear Solid 4.

The game, which will be released worldwide on June 12th, will retail in the region for YEN8,800 (around £45). The Special Edition will cost YEN9,800 (£50) whilst a bundle including both the Steel console and the Special Edition will cost YEN51,800 (£270), according to Kotaku.

Meanwhile, Famitsu also reports that original PSOne hit Metal Gear Solid will be hitting Sony’s PlayStation Network in the Spring and will be compatible with both PS3 and PSP.

There has to date been no word on any new colour PS3 SKUs being planned for the European market.
