What Really Happened To Metal Gear Rising?
We got all sorts of details on the revamped Metal Gear Rising along with a trailer this weekend, but are you still confused about what went on behind the scenes that caused Konami to make such drastic changes to the game and the team working on it? Allow the publisher and developers behind the game to explain in their own words.
In this 25-minute video posted to Konami's YouTube channel, Hideo Kojima and various members of the Platinum Games and Kojima Productions teams provide plenty of background info about where the original Rising project went wrong, why it went dark for so long, and how they decided to revise it with the new developer.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
