News - Metal Gear Solid 4 announced for next-gen consoles

Posted by Josh Freund at 03:24:29 PM EST on 3.2.2005.

Today, at Konami's European Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater launch event, Hideo Kojima, producer of the MGS games, revealed that Metal Gear Solid 4 is being planned for next-generation consoles. While he didn't say what console/s it will be on, he did give some info about the game itself.

MGS4 will be the beginning of a new series/plotline featuring Solid Snake. Speaking about the concept of MGS4, Kojima said that there will be "no place to hide." He also joked that there will be "no place for Hideo." He will be stepping out of the main spotlight and assuming the role of executive producer. Ken-Ichiro Imaizumi will be taking the reins as the producer.

"We'll be taking it [MGS 4] to the next-gen and we want to feature a fresh, intriguing storyline and gameplay plus captivating graphics and more features while remaining true to the core of the MGS series - remaining Solid. We hope you'll enjoy," said Imaizumi at the launch event today.

We'll be sure to let you know when we hear any further details on Konami's next MGS offering.

I'll see. If the movements become more natural for Snake, then we'll see...and please have some of the SC thrown in there...

- What do you mean by that? Like more hide and sneak gameplay?

More fluid...then having a "!" or "?" or "Caution" or "Alert"...you know, realistic...I'd rather have alarms myself...like in the sneaking missions...
