‘Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain’s’ Launch Trailer Is Almost An Apology To Hideo Kojima

I have no idea what happened between Konami and Hideo Kojima. Konami’s had some tough financial times, Kojima is a notorious personality, something went wrong, and the relationship between the two is changing somewhat drastically. It has appeared downright nasty at times and more civil at others, but one game has loomed large over the entire affair: Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain, the latest installment in the legendary Metal Gear series, even if Konami has removed all hints of it being a Hideo Kojima game from the game’s branding. It’s almost definitely Hideo Kojima’s last time leading a Metal Gear game, which is something bittersweet. Bittersweet would be the tone of Metal Gear Solid 5’s launch trailer, out today.
