Kojima can’t quit Solid Snake, confirms Metal Gear Solid 5

4.6
Whether he’s in a cardboard box, lying prone in tall grass, or using his OctoCamo suit, Solid Snake just can’t hide from his creator, Hideo Kojima.

The Metal Gear Solid head confirmed to French game magazine IG that a new sequel is on the way for the franchise, saying that “there will be a Metal Gear Solid 5 with the new FOX Engine,” and that it will star the very senior — at least at the end of MGS 4 — Solid Snake.

“Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance never claimed to be a Metal Gear Solid. This is not a game about our beloved Solid Snake. It is a spinoff that tries something different. We have not yet finished with Solid Snake, despite the fact that I wanted to let him die at the end of Guns of the Patriots.”

Additionally, Kojima dropped some vague details about what the fifth MGS game might revolve around, saying, “I can tell you two things. There will be much question of infiltration, espionage, and convincing people to give you ‘a favour’ like in the last Metal Gear Solid.

“I liked the idea of social interactions in Deus Ex: Human Revolution, but we will see. And if I say more, the female ninja public relations officer, who is behind the door, I will be carved up into pieces. So it’s better that we meet again when the time comes to talk about Metal Gear Solid 5.”

Carved into pieces, eh? We wouldn’t want that.

Powerbot I really wish they would stop using the same graphic engine...


i know it makes me mad that every single game has pretty much the same engine or close to the same engine

Also ppl need to get off the haterade and go back to playing the Eighth installment of cod. There is not that many metal gears and if you actually played the game and followed along that rising can't answer and hell this one prolly won't answer either. I'm sure there will be atleast 2 more not including the 2 coming. They still haven't covered gray fox and Zanzibar. And much more I just can't think of them ATM.

I was beating the first mgs for ps1 when I was just 4 years old. And beating all the old Nintendo ones. All on the hardest difficulty. I literally think I'm the biggest mgs fan lol. I had to buy a ps3 JUST for mgs4. I bought it 3 years ago, turned it on once, beat mgs4, turned it off and haven't used it since. I wonder if it's gonna be another 5 years for it to come out. They announced rising atleast a good 3 in a half years ago and it's still not gonna be done till late 2013.. I could care less though I hate raiden but I've heard snakes gonna be in rising also. Man I REALLY hope this one will be for Xbox i doubt it though :(
