Metal gear rising revengeance platforms12/5/2023 Raiden is an extremely powerful cyborg, dispatching other cyborgs in close-range combat with ease. Raiden is part of a PMC (private military company) called Maverick, and he goes to a small autonomous country called Abkhazia, located within Georgia, where a military coup has been performed with a great aid from Desperado, another PMC that assassinated an African leader Raiden had to guard on his previous mission.Īnd from there, the action begins. It actually takes place AFTER the events of Guns of the Patriots – I did expect to play through Raiden’s adventures while he’s trying to save Sunny from the Patriots, between the events of Sons of Liberty and Guns of the Patriots. From the very beginning, it’s clear that, despite being an action game, Metal Gear Rising will have a considerable focus on story. The demo sticks to the standard in terms of length – you play up to the first boss, and it ends after you defeat him. They even changed the name itself from Metal Gear Solid: Rising to Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance – the Solid part disappeared altogether because Kojima wanted to deliver a message to fans – this is NOT a Metal Gear Solid game in anything but the setting and some characters.Īfter the project was handed over to PlatinumGames, the studio that’s now home to Shinji Mikami, Resident Evil creator, and Hideki Kamiya, director of Devil May Cry and Okami, as well as others from the former Capcom Clover staff, a studio that has already made a name for itself in the action genre (they’re the makers of well-received games like Bayonetta and Vanquish), it was clear that the goal was to create a solid action game in the Metal Gear universe with the new, badass Raiden as the star – nothing more, nothing less.Īnd, when I received the Zone of the Enders HD collection last week, it was more than clear that the first content I’d tackle would be the Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance demo included on the disc. It was clear that it would be a departure from the Metal Gear (Solid) formula, that it would be an action game about Ninja Raiden cutting people up in Ninja Gaiden style, rather than a Metal Gear game that focuses on stealth. I’ve been skeptical about Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance ever since it was first announced.
