Recently Hideo Kojima and Konami announced that the next game in the Metal Gear Solid series would be “Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes”. I previous wrote a little bit on this subject, but there is more information coming in from PAX on the game, including gameplay and a trailer.

So we know for sure that this game will be released on the Playstation 3, but it may also come out on the Xbox 360 and the PC. Kojima and Konami have also stated that Ground Zeroes will be a prologue. No commitment on an official Metal Gear Solid 5 has come about yet, but it may be in the works someday.

On to the good stuff. Below is an 11 minute long feature/demo from PAX Prime. Enjoy.

So we already heard that Kojima Productions were working on a new Metal Gear Solid game, but we didn’t hear much else about it. Last night at the Metal Gear 25th Anniversary event in Japan, Kojima wowed audiences with a demo for the newest title in the Metal Gear Solid series: Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes. The demo showed off the new Fox Engine, delighting and stunning the audience.

Photos and videos were not allowed during the video, but word is that the demo was amazing – revealing beautiful graphics and awesome gameplay/cutscenes. Kojima said that the new Fox Engine will run on current-gen consoles, but will also be easily transitioned to the next gen. From the looks of thing, this new engine is the best it’s going to get graphically on current-gen.

When more information arises, I will be sure to share it here.

Hideo Kojima Revealing New ‘Fox Engine’ Next Month

Metal Gear series creator Hideo Kojima reflected on the series’ 25th anniversary in a blog post, and said that we will get a look at the Fox Engine next month at an event in Japan. The Fox Engine will likely power the next Metal Gear Solid game.

Kojima’s statement on the PlayStation Blog:

“The Fox Engine is nearly finished, but the only way to be sure it works is to create a game at the same time and improve the engine with our tools as we go along.  Originally we were going to do this for Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, but a lot happened along the way and instead it is being made with the engine they have at Platinum Games. Production studios in Japan are nearly extinct, a fact that we have recognized for nearly 10 years, and although the Fox Engine is not finished we are ready to show what it can do… on August 30th in Japan to be more specific.”

Here is a preview of what this engine be able to do, and here are some photo’s Kojima tweeted on ‘Project Ogre’ which is said to be the new Metal Gear Solid game.

So August 30th is the day when we will find out more about this new engine, and possibly more on the next Metal Gear Solid game.

Metal Gear Solid 4 “Best” Version Gets Cool New Features

Not a whole lot of details have been released on this “Best” version of Metal Gear Solid 4, but what has been said has been pretty neat.

First of all the new version will have trophy support, whereas the previous version had no trophies. This is great news for people who love to trophy hunt and who also want to accomplish more with Metal Gear Solid 4. These trophies will be added as a patch to the existing game and will be available on the new version of the game coming in August to Japan, no word on the United States or European dates just yet.

The other cool thing is that the new version of the game will feature full game install, making load times faster. It’s not certain how long the install will take, but it is certain that the install isn’t necessary. So if players choose not to install they can still play the game just fine, but with longer Snake smoking breaks (aka loading screens).

Other than that, not much else has been said. Here is a link to Konami Style (link in Japanese) about the “best” version of Metal Gear Solid 4.

I will post more information as it is released.
