Oh, that Hideo Kojima! Everything he touches turns to Troll Dust, and the “announcement” ofMetal Gear Solid 5is no exception. It turns outOfficial PlayStation Magazinewas a little bit liberal with its wording when itteased itsMGS5news, as Kojima didn’t confirm anything … yet.
Turns out that the mad genius said, “I think we’ll probably have to make it at some point, but what that will be, we have no idea,” when talking aboutMetal Gear Solid 5. He went on to say that, whatever the future ofMetal Gear Solidholds, he won’t be as hands-on as he used to be.
“As far as my involvement in the project is concerned, [it] probably won’t be as much as it was withMGS1–maybe I can do just one stage! ForMGS1I made the maps myself, laid out the enemy routes myself, did everything hands-on – that level I can’t do again.”
Don’t worry though, there’s still some Kojima fun coming. He recently confirmed he was working on a game codenamedProject Ogre— but we’ll have to wait and find out what that’s all about. Maybe it’sMetal Gear Solid 5!
