Metal Gear Solid: Rising reinvented, first details
Konami reveals first details about the new action-oriented title
Konami Digital Entertainment has announced the first details about a newly revealed title, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance.
First announced over two years ago as Metal Gear Solid: Rising, the title now has a new name and development team. Kojima Productions has created the story for the game, managed the cutscenes and voice-over sessions. Platinum Games will focus on the game design and programming elements, under the supervision of Kojima Productions.
Hideo Kojima, Head of Kojima Productions and creator of the Metal Gear series, personally chose Platinum Games to create the new title, and Metal Gear Solid veteran Yuji Korekado has been appointed to oversee the project for Kojima productions and will work closely with Platinum’s Atsushi Inaba. Hideo Kojima will act as Executive Producer.
The game will be reinvented as a more action-orientated title than initially planned, with Platinum Games creating a game where the player has total control of the main character – the cybernetically-enhanced Raiden from Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. As such, the game title has been subtly rebranded to reflect the more action-based content than in previous Metal Gear Solid titles.
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is scheduled to be released on PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360. A PC version is no longer planned, though it was initially announced for Rising.
