Metal Gear Solid game
series designer Hideo Kojima revealed at a panel at the Game Developers
Conference (GDC) in San Francisco on Wednesday that a Metal Gear Solid V game
is in development. Kojima also showed a trailer for the new game, which will be
released on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
The game, whose full title is Metal Gear Solid V: The
Phantom Pain, was originally revealed as just "The Phantom Pain" in a
trailer during Spike TV's Video Game Awards in December. At that time, Kojima
had not been officially revealed as being a part of the project.
Kojima noted during the GDC panel that The Phantom Pain plus
the in-development title Metal Gear Solid Ground Zeroes together make up Metal
Gear Solid V.Kojima revealed that the game features Snake after he wakes up from a nine-year coma. Snake has lost a lot of his abilities, and must crawl through a hospital to escape. After Snake escapes from the hospital in the game, he can then walk around the game's world openly. The game will use Kojima Productions' new Fox Engine. Kojima will again produce and direct the title.
Kojima also discussed Fox Engine and its rendering
capabilities during the panel.
Update: Replaced video with official video from Konami.
Update 2: Kojima clarified on his Twitter account on
Wednesday that Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes is a prologue to Metal Gear
Solid V, and will take place nine years before Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom
Pain, the latter of which he called the "main game." Kojima also
showed a gameplay demo during the GDC panel from the opening sequence of The
Phantom Pain game.
