Tweet Reveals Extent of Kojima’s Involvement with Phantom Pain

March 21, 2013 by Stephen Daly

Metal Gear Solid’s creator tweets an image showing the extent of his role in the game’s development.

A tweet from Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima has seemingly revealed the extent of his involvement with the forthcoming The Phantom Pain.

The tweet contains an image apparently showing Kojima is the game's director, producer and designer. The image appears to be from a trailer Kojima is due to show at his Game Developer Conference presentation next week which was recently extended from 60 to 90 minutes.

Kojima's presentation is on the topic of 'Photorealism Through the Eyes of a Fox -The Core of Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeros.'

The file shown is listed as 'TPP_GDC 2013_720_ersb', the ERSB sets age ratings for games in the US.

The Phantom Pain was originally revealed at the Spike TV Video Game Awards in December 2012 supposedly under the development of Sweden's Moby Dick Studio. Earlier this month GameTrailers sat down with studio head Joakim Mogren who is believed by some to be Kojima himself (his first name is an anagram).
