Additionally, the announcement also cited that certain circumstances which are related to “nuclear proliferation” must be fulfilled on the regional server for the gamer’s corresponding gaming platform.

Konami then posted just how many nuclear weapons are active per platform.
To accomplish total nuclear disarmament, all “Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain” players must take out any nuke in their bases.
If you’ve played Metal Gear Solid 5 through to the end you’ll know that it doesn’t really have one. Considering there were 1,685 nukes in the PlayStation 3 version on November 1 and 2,761 in the PlayStation 4 version on November 1, people have come quite a long way. The player needs to convince other players to voluntarily scrap their own nuke, or to sneak into rival bases and destroy the nukes of those who refuse to give them up. The fourth and final step is to ensure all nuclear weapons on a specific regional server of a console or platform must be dismantled in order for the ending to unlock. In addition to completing Mission 31, players would have to abandon their plans to develop nuclear weapons for personal use in addition to discarding any they’d previously built and stored.
Konami is keeping count of the amount of nukes on all platforms over on the official Metal Gear Twitter.
If nukes are developed by a player after that, the third and fourth conditions must be once again fulfilled.
Since the mission has been unlocked, the third condition must be met. Tech Times reports that since players have learned the secret mission, nuclear disarmament has been done at a fast pace. Among the features getting added to Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain onlime mode will be an additional function for the cardboard box, new background music and much more.

Forbes speculates that this drastic slide in the numbers of owned nuclear weapons may be because players are already up for a new challenge.
