An officially licensed Metal Gear café has sprung up in Paris serving meals delightfully in conjunction with the theme of the new Metal Gear Solid V, set to launch September 1.

This isn’t the first time a video game-themed restaurant has appeared in some random international location, however, one does wonder what other gaming companies may follow suit?
