Speaking to 1UP, Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima has revealed he doesn’t want to be involved in the development of Metal Gear Solid 5, despite having created three concepts for the game.
“I have three concepts for MGS5 already,” said Kojima. “What would be ideal for me with MGS5, though, is that we don’t do those. If the team picks one of those concepts, I have to get involved again, which I don’t want to do.
“There are already so many good ideas from the staff, so if we select one of those, that would be really good. At that point I could really rely on them and take the step back to be the producer, which is the ideal situation, I think.”
Kojima added that what he really wants to be doing is working on something new, but is unsure of his idea’s commercial appeal.
“I want to create something new, and it’s difficult to explain since no one’s seen it before. I don’t know if it would sell very well,” he said. “I’ve been warming this up for a long time, and I keep thinking that I’ll try this idea. But ideas always change, so I really don’t know what the final outcome will be.”
