Kojima wants Metal Gear Rising 2 to star Cyborg Ninja Gray Fox

Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima has told VideoGamer.com that he wants Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance 2 to star Cyborg Ninja Gray Fox, and have him fight against nano machine zombies.

"Honestly I think that personally if we are going to make a sequel to Rising it should feature Frank Yaeger as a main character versus zombies... nano machine-powered zombies. That's what I'm proposing to Platinum and the producer of the project, but they seem to be ignoring me.

I'd prefer if they made a prequel to Rising Revengeance and have it take place between MGS2 and 4 like Rising was originally supposed to.

Chaos_Raiden4076d ago

Agreed. Perhaps that prequel will tell us how was Maverick formed with Raiden's help, and what odd jobs he have done during that time. I also would like to see more of his interaction with his family if possible.

deanobi4076d ago

But Gray Fox died in MGS1...

Kojima is starting to make the MGS franchise unrealistic :/

Baka-akaB4076d ago

Since when does that prevent a game set in a past , when gray fox was alive ?

iNcRiMiNaTi4076d ago

Wasn't he killed in Zanzibar land before he became the ninja in mgs1?

Eamon4076d ago

Yeah that's the point. He was supposedly killed in Zanzibar Land but was made into a Cyborg Ninja by Paramedic. He was kept on Shadow Moses until he broke out during the time Snake arrived. So technically, unless he survived a Rex's foot, there's not exactly a place somewhere in between for him to be slicing zombies lol.

Kojima is just having a grayfoxgasm.

Allsystemgamer4076d ago

They could have you play as fix DURING the shadow Moses incident. I mean you barely see him during mgs1. It could allow us to see his side of the story.

TheModernKamikaze4076d ago

Plot twist: In Rising 2, Gray Fox is a zombie.

ApexHell4076d ago

rising isnt even in the same reality as mgs grey fox could have never died in this timeline.

Luke_fon_Fabre4076d ago

It's the same timeline. It's canon

Id love it since gray fox is the original cyborg ninja.

Irishguy954076d ago (Edited 4076d ago )

The most bad*** one too.

I wouldn't mind. Either a grey fox one or a Raiden MGS2-4 interquel

zerocrossing4076d ago

Uhh, HELLZ YEAH I want an action game staring Grey Fox!

At some point it has to happen, Grey Fox is just to much of a popular character not to star in his own action game, IMO.

If the rumours are true Kojima wanted MGR to star Grey fox, but the younger devs in the team wanted it to be Raiden instead so he caved and let them have their way...

JohnApocalypse4076d ago

I would like to see that to. I'm playing rising with the Grey Fox costume and it looks very sexy

maximus19854076d ago

same here, played the whole game in the gray fox dlc costume. and the fox blade SPOILER!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!

can cut limbs without going into blade mode, making hard mode a breeze.

Metal Gear Solid Can Work Without Hideo Kojima

There are more good non-Kojima Metal Gear games than one would realize. Scientifically, three examples prove a trend, and in this feature are three excellent Metal Gear games that Hideo Kojima did not direct.

I hope so, still cant forget MGS Survive , the first MGS game without Kojima involvement and it was a complete failure, the thing is Kojima way of thinking is outside the box and that's why their games 99% end up unique, original and a almost instant classic. MGS series are full of intricate things that somehows connects to each other, Lalulilelo, the Patriots, Outher heaven, Foxhound, PMCs , heck even Kojima manage to insert DARPA in there lol, a US government Defense Agency. So is really great MGS3 Remake is reviving the series but without Kojima who knows of the end result, I hope Konami have another or more developers insight their studios who can also think outside the box.

senorfartcushion323d ago

It actually can’t. But it won’t matter.

Kojima is Metal Gear the same way that Christopher Nolan is The Dark Knight, or David Lynch is Twin Peaks: The Return episode 8. Artistry is the creation of a thing from your own thoughts and feelings. Take away the original artist’s thoughts and feelings and you have a new thing entirely.

This isn’t going to stop the mega corporation creating a fake version and spending millions TELLING customers that it’s made with the same thoughts and feelings. The masses will buy the idea the same way the corporation will sell the idea.

just_looken323d ago

I guess everyone forgot metal gear solid rising was tossed to platnium games with a story script and that is it.

Z501322d ago

Kojima was involved in Rising tho

just_looken322d ago

kpjima just did the story everything else was platnium games look it up.

Hence i said script

neutralgamer1992323d ago

i think the bigger issue is whether or not Konami is actually interested in fully funding AAA games development. Even this remake is done by a studio not really known in gaming industry. Quality remake/projets vs cheap cash in quick releases. Which way will Konami head. I am a huge MGS fan and i feel like Kojima did long time MGS fans dirty with how made MGS5 and it's story elements

senorfartcushion322d ago

Remakes and remasters provide a gateway through to producing AAA games faster and cheaper.

RaveTears323d ago (Edited 323d ago )

Actually MGS Portable Ops which was technically the first canon MGS game that Kojima wasn’t mainly involved with it. Kojima was only the producer but not the writer and director.

Konami did other MGS spin off that were successful but that because Konami put effort. Just along Konami is not lazy and cash grab, they can a MGS game without Kojima.

gold_drake323d ago (Edited 323d ago )

i mean sure, but he made it the thing it is today and why people love it so much.

i think its not easy to replicate.

Flawlessmic323d ago

I doubt it could.

Say what you want about the bloke, but his games are uniquely his.

I don't think anyone makes games like kojima does, for better or worse.

Could mgs continue without him, yea maybe, but it would lacking his genius so wouldn't be the same.

Soulsborne323d ago

Well , he already created it. They just have to recreate it? Not like its a new concept or IP. Trash article.

Terry_B323d ago

Yes. It only needs motivated clever people.

Why We Need Metal Gear Rising 2

Demand for a sequel is about to skyrocket, like the good ol' days of 2013!

In case you're living under a suspiciously rock-shaped object, the recent PlayStation Showcase revealed that a remake of Metal Gear Solid 3 will be coming, alongside a Master Collection of Metal Gear Solid 1, 2, and 3. While it is a remake of an existing game, there's a great deal of significance to it, considering the last time a game in the series came out was back in 2018 with Metal Gear Survive (and the less said about that, the better). Konami's decision to pull a Konami and feud with series creator Hideo Kojima has long left the fate of Metal Gear uncertain, but this recent announcement has led to all bets being off as to where Metal Gear can go from here.
