KONAMI details new action-orientated title from Kojima Productions
\n<\/em><\/strong>
\nSYDNEY, 14 December 2011:<\/strong> Announced over two years ago, KONAMI premiered a new trailer for\u00a0METAL GEAR RISING : REVENGEANCE<\/strong>\u00a0at the prestigious Video Game Awards on December 10th<\/sup>, and is now ready to outline the direction the action title is taking and detailing those behind it.\u00a0METAL GEAR RISING: REVENGEANCE<\/strong>\u00a0is a stunning action title, produced by Kojima Productions and developed by Platinum Games. Kojima Productions has created the story for the game, managed the cut scenes and voice-over sessions, and Metal Gear Solid artist Yoji Shinkawa has created the character designs. Platinum Games will focus on the game design and programming elements, under the supervision of Kojima Productions.<\/p>\n

<\/object><\/p>\n

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\u2019s Atsushi Inaba. Hideo Kojima will act as Executive Producer. These appointments follow the decision to reposition\u00a0METAL GEAR RISING: REVENGEANCE<\/strong>\u00a0as a more action-orientated title than initially planned, with Platinum Games creating a game where the player has total control of the main character \u2013 the cybernetically-enhanced Raiden from\u00a0METAL GEAR S OLID 4: Guns of the Patriots<\/strong>\u00a0– and a total freedom of how users control him. As such, the game title has been subtly rebranded to reflect the more action-based content than in previous Metal Gear Solid titles.<\/p>\n

As seen in the trailer, the result is a breath-taking action title wherein the player guides Raiden through a series of beautifully-realised stages. Raiden is armed with a High Frequency katana blade which he uses to cut through anything that stands in his way. The three-minute trailer shows Raiden\u2019s incredible level of power and control as he cuts through enemies and various obstacles alike using high-speed combination attacks, and using free-running skills to bypass groups of adversaries to give him a strategic advantage and catch them off-guard. As the game progresses, Raiden\u2019s physical prowess is increasingly called upon and tested, with huge enemies appearing that require specific tactics to disable.<\/p>\n

\u201cMETAL GEAR RISING: REVENGEANCE<\/strong>\u00a0is a new direction,\u201d explained Martin Schneider, General Manager of Konami Digital Entertainment GmbH. \u201cThere was the urge for something new,, and thus Inaba-san\u2018s unrivalled knowledge of the action genre, and Korekado-san\u2019s knowledge of the METAL GEAR SOLID universe, combined with Kojima Productions\u2019 standard for excellence ensures METAL GEAR RISING: REVENGEANCE<\/strong>\u00a0is in safe hands.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
