[Rumor] Kojima sneaks Solid Snake into FOX Engine for MGS5
6/20/12 6:47pm
In an interview with French magazine IG, Hideo Kojima is going to drop a bomb on the Internet. The July issue of the magazine will feature Kojima taking a little about Metal Gear Solid 5 and how the FOX engine is being used to develop it.
Now initially there was some controversy surrounding the quotes, but IG has confirmed to CVG that the rumor is valid in their eyes and the quotes are accurate. I will bow out and let Hideo speak for himself.
"There will be a Metal Gear Solid 5 with the new FOX Engine… Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance never claimed to be a Metal Gear Solid. This is not a game about our beloved Solid Snake. It is a spinoff that tries something different. We have not yet finished with Solid Snake, despite the fact that I wanted to let him die at the end of Guns of the Patriots… About Metal Gear Solid 5, I can tell you two things. There will be much question of infiltration, espionage, and convincing people to give you 'a favour' like in the last Metal Gear Solid… I liked the idea of social interactions in Deus Ex: Human Revolution, but we will see. And if I say more, the female ninja public relations officer, who is behind the door, I will be carved up into pieces. So it's better that we meet again when the time comes to talk about Metal Gear Solid 5."

UPDATE
"PSM3 conducted an in-depth investigation of the Metal Gear Solid timeline and speculated that Metal Gear Solid 5 will be set in 1970s Africa, star Big Boss and - and maybe, just maybe - show the birth of baby Solid Snake."

A complete remake of MG1 & 2 with more depth in the story. I would buy it.

Right, it's either a sequel where it should be the final solid snake but wtf is meant to happen after the last patriot server is gone is beyond me, or it's remake for the MSX original which could work because cambell will no longer be in MG games, RIP.

I honestly wouldn't mind if Kojima used the FOX engine to remake MG1 and MG2 but....C'mon, let Solid Snake die in peace.

Ya know...since that picture of Big Boss with a dog has been floating around, maybe MGS5 will take place after peace walker but before or DURING Metal Gear 1, hence why Solid Snake might return.
