Kojima, Square Enix planning another collaboration
Square Enix is up to its old tricks again, hinting at a new partnership with Hideo Kojima.
What exactly the deal involves is unknown, but the move was tweeted by Square Enix’s Shinji Hasimoto along with the picture you see above that features the producer, the Metal Gear director and art director at Kojima Productions Yoji Shinkawa.
More details will be forthcoming in the near future.
The last deal announced by the two was back in April when Square announced it was creating figures for Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. So don’t go expecting anything that would be a megaton. But don’t rule it out neither.
Just to be safe.
Thanks, Andriasang.

ZOE3 to be published by Square Enix perhaps? (That is if KP own the IP)

do you think Kojima has really bad teeth, i bet if he flashed a smile all we’d see was a mouth full of black stumps

ZOE3 to be published by Square would be seriously pushing it.
Like properly pushing it.
Besides, why on earth would Konami want to let some other company publish a title made by its highest-known developer on one of its biggest cult hit IPs?

@5 ZOE was a little bit Niche. It sold not so well and i don’t think so about Square Enix publishing it.
Konami wants to take all the cake. Always.

I don’t like Hideo Kojima’s games and Square Enix haven’t developed a great game for years now.
There’s nothing to excite me here, personally speaking of course…

Fine, not ZOE3 then. But seems like something quite big. I mean he wouldn’t be meeting up with Shinkawa and Kojima just to discuss another batch of action figures…

Between Kojima and Squeenix they should be able to make a game that is almost entirely cut-scenes!

Could be Square doing a CGI Movie to tie in with MGS rising/ZOE3 or something?
