The 'Next' Metal Gear Is Coming

Hideo Kojima is looking for talented individuals to work on the next Metal Gear game for "high-end consoles" and PC.

The new job website advertises a number of new openings. Kojima is also looking for people to "help develop next-gen game engine technology for use with the FOX Engine." A new piece of conceptual artwork is also revealed, showing off Naked Snake/Big Boss with a dog. See it below.

In December, Kojima showed off screenshots of one of his new games, though it's unclear if they are related to the Metal Gear franchise. Project Ogre is one of the confirmed games in development. Kojima recently described it as open-world and very non-linear.

  • I'll make it. All by my lonesome.
  • Looks cool!

  • it took 2 hours for the first comment ? PS nice recruitment poster
  • Hideo please remake the original Metal Gear!

    Peace walker leads RIGHT into it. It says "Next" as if he's saying it sarcastically which means its a prequel that starts after PW, oh please oh please oh please be a remake of MG.


    btw Metal Gear > Mass Effect *troll face*
  • epic

  • Maybe the best thing I've read all day! Sounds like the Xbox might finally be getting a full on Metal Gear game, instead of just HD collections and spinoffs. Its gonna be hard to decide which system to get it on though. Oh well, when the time comes I guess. Just excited to know its on the way.
  • LOL I like the pictures there awsome
  • Hey, Jim. There's a mistake in there. The concept of art with a dog is not with Old Snake, it's with Naked Snake/Big Boss. Old Snake was Solid Snake's handle in MGS4. Sorry, seeing that turned my OCD coils on.
  • kojima will be involed in every metal gear game whether he likes it or not. i like it, but he has been whating other people to do it for the longest time.
  • I am more excited for the Fox engine than anything...cool artwork too.

  • Thats not old snake. that is big boss. notice the eyepatch? on another note, I am sooo glad its coming to pc. I thought that after switching over I would miss out on metal gear. glad that is not the case.
  • I just got done playing through every single one over again...Man do I love those games. Especially MGS2. I can play that game over and over and over again and never get tired.

    The only 2 things I hope Kojima gets right with the next Metal Gear game are...

    A) Shooting mechanics. The reason I love the Metal Gear series is because you really can play it how you want. With MGS4, Kojima and crew made the shooting mechanics feel like a modern 3rd person shooter would...only a hell of a lot more clunky. Polish it up. If on my 20th playthrough I want to play it like a straight up shooter, I should be able to without having to wrestle with bad aiming.

    B) No re-spawning enemies. I loved MGS4 just as much as the next guy, but the combat seemed pointless since the enemies would just keep respawning over and over again. I never felt like I had made any impact on the battlefield, or felt like I was making a difference in the game world with my awesome skills since enemies would just keep flowing out of spawn points. It takes all the fun out of it when enemies just keep coming and coming and coming.
  • I'll buy just about anything Hideo Kojima lays his hands on, so call me intrigued. Let's hope we don't have to wait two years into the next console life cycle to finally get our hands on more Metal Gear.
  • I'd give my left nut to work on mgs.

  • HIRE ME! Just so I can be in on all the secrets...

    Joking aside, already pumped to find out whats going on!

  • Staff
    Wait, so it is another Metal Gear Solid? As opposed to Metal Gear?
  • Oh god, I'm excited for everything Metal Gear.  Favorite series by far.

    A remake of MG would be fun, even though I'd much rather have a WWII-The-Boss-storming-Normandy prequel.

  • YES NEW MGS!!!!!! This pic is gunna be my PC backround

  • HOLY CRAP! This must be referring to the "Dogs of War", Zanzibar Land's mercenary army led by Big Boss in Metal Gear 2!!! XD
  • its Metal Gear Solid but its being released on the pc woah
