Kojima Already busy on a Next-Gen Metal Gear Solid?
Concording a series of job listings that lately arose on Konami Japan’s website, Kojima Productions is preparing for development on the following entry in the Metal Gear Solid franchise. While Metal Gear: Rising is nevertheless in production and will be released in 2012, these postings in all probability advert to a heretofore unexpected MGS title, as the openings enrolled are more declarative of a brand new project. These admit design leads, concept artists and, perhaps most interestingly, software engineers concerned in “next generation” graphics research.
It looks likely that Kojima is now projecting something for the following batch of video consoles, which are still little more than hearsay. Sony has insinuated in the past that they have got a ten-year design for the PS3, and given the recent campaign Microsoft has constructed into Kinect, it is improbable we’ll be hearing anything about modern consoles for few years. Either Kojima knows something in that area or not, we’ll live to see.
In a late interview last July, Kojima declared that his following project would have to be “either MGS5 or an original game. I only have these two choices.”
