Metal Gear Survive is the first Metal Gear console game to be announced since Kojima’s departure from Konami.
Entertainment news website Variety reported on Wednesday that writer Derek Connolly (Jurassic World, Kong: Skull Island, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom) is slated to write the “latest draft” of Sony Pictures’ live-action film adaptation of the Metal Gear Solid video game series.
Series creator Hideo Kojima’s last Metal Gear title with Konami, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, shipped for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and PC in September 2015.
Most of the games in the Metal Gear Solid series follow Solid Snake, a special forces operative who slowly becomes involved in a global conspiracy.
