While it is still only a skin, it's better than nothing, right? For those old enough to have played Metal Gear Solid 1, Gray Fox made such an impression that a lot of people wanted him to star in a game on his own. It seems this is the closest we'll get in seeing Frank Jaeger (Gray Fox's real name) in his own adventure.
Just in case you're not sold on the game yet and you don't have access to the game's demo, which is only available for those who bought Zone of the Enders' HD Collection, you can watch 20-minutes of gameplay footage here.
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is being developed by Platinum Games and is set for release on February 19, 2013 for the PC, Xbox 360 and PS3.
