According to Kojima, this won’t be just a plot element – everything in the game will be linked to the theme of revenge in some way, from the characters and story, to the gameplay itself. We don’t know what this means exactly, but Kojima has proven to be incredibly creative in his approach to this franchise, so we don’t doubt that he can come up with something interesting.
Fans have been getting more and more excited for the game, and as long as Kojima and his studio pay enough attention to the small details (like they always have) and ensure to follow feedback, we should have a winning title on our hands very soon.
More specifically, on September 1, when the game is supposed to hit the market on all platforms simultaneously. PC gamers will get to enjoy it as well, after some worrying rumors that the platform might be skipped for this particular installment.
And for those who haven’t been able to attend Gamescom and see the gameplay in person, there are lots of recordings all over the Internet that should make up for that loss. Nothing has been left out, and players can get a glimpse at the full picture by browsing around YouTube and other social media websites like reddit, which have analyzed and put together what we know about the game so far.
