Hideo Kojima will pass the development of Metal Gear Solid: Rising onto the “young bloods” at Kojima Productions. He’ll take a backset on the game’s development, instead focusing his attention on the PSP’s Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker.

“We’re creating Rising with Kojima Productions’ up-and-coming young bloods, because the game is for the young bloods as well, a new experience,” said Kojima, who added that Rising would still take the form of “a stealth espionage action game, of course”.

Kojima has described Peace Walker as the “true” Metal Gear Solid sequel to the franchise:

“This is what I mean by a true sequel – it means that I’m writing the script, I’m doing the game direction, I’m working on the title full-time and the main team of Metal Gear Solid 4 is working on this title,” he said.

Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker is due out next year exclusively on the PSP.
