More MGS to come from Hideo Kojima
Rising to become its own series
It has emerged from Konami USA that Hideo Kojima is not done making Metal Gear Solid games just yet.
Kojima recently announced that he had handed over production of Metal Gear Solid: Rising to Shigenobu Matsuyama. Konami is adamant that the series creator will continue to make MGS titles for the forseeable future.
Matsuyama-san clarified this and also explained the position of MGS: Rising within the canon of Metal Gear.
He said: "I've been asked a lot, 'Is this going to be a side-story or spin-off to the MGS series?', but what I'm positioning is that there will be a Hideo Kojima game that is MGS, but what we are planning as Kojima Productions is have this Raiden Rising as almost as a standard so that there's an MGS and the Rising going back-and-forth in the future."
