Update: Corrected error in interpretation of Kojima’s message.
Big Boss is ready to touch down on four platforms with the March release of Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes. So, which one should you play? The creator of Metal Gear has your answer.
Kojima shared the following on his Twitter account (translated from Japanese):
At the end of next month PS4, the long awaited next generation console will be released in Japan. Ground Zeroes will also be released at the end of the month after that. Ground Zeroes will also be launch on current generation consoles, but I want you to play on PS4 if possible.
I was talking in an interview overseas and they told me: “Next generation console? Here PS4 and ONE are already current generation”
The PS4 might have three million units sold, but that pales in comparison to the PS3’s 82 million user install base. In all likelihood the last-generation versions of the game will outsell next-gen by a considerable margin. That certainly doesn’t mean they’re better, though.
Konami will provide an upgrade program for those who make the realization that better graphics make for a better experience after purchasing the PS3 version.
Whichever platform you decide to get Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes on chances are you’ll be pleased. If you own a PS4, then Kojima’s recommendation goes without saying.
