Hideo Kojima, the man behind Metal Gear Solid, has divulged that he’ll be announcing the upcoming game he’s working on at E3, not GDC, where many thought he might be doing so.
“I’m not going to be talking about new titles or anything,” Kojima stated when speaking to 1UP. When talking to IGN, he added: “An official game announcement will be made at E3.”
The legendary game-maker has said, on many occasions, that he won’t be sitting in the driving seat for the next Metal Gear game. But he does have a habit of making this point so you never know.
Newcomer to GDC Kojima’s talk is named “Solid Game Design: Making the ‘Impossible’ Possible”, and is set to focus on “conquering various development obstacles with creative game design, using the driving game design philosophies behind the Metal Gear series as reference”, say the folks organizing the event.
“Since it’s a keynote and since we’re in the entertainment business, I try to make my presentations as entertaining as possible,” Kojima told 1UP.
