The Metal Gear Survive beta is now available for download on Xbox One via the Australian store. Weighing in at 8GB, it's certainly not something that will fill your hard drives up.

Interestingly, the Metal Gear Survive beta is tagged as Xbox One X enhanced though KONAMI didn't provide any details on the enhancements yet (and Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain didn't receive an Xbox One X update yet). Support for High Dynamic Range (HDR) displays is also included. Here's what you'll find in the beta test content-wise, according to the store description.
