Hideo Kojima has recently said in an interview that he may leave the Metal Gear series into the hands of his younger colleagues and the man himself will take a different role in the next Metal Gear game. Kojima said:
“Maybe I’ll sit in as producer and let the young staff take control of the new series. I really want to go on to new things.”
And here is a question he got asked:
Q: You’ve indicated that this will be your last “Metal Gear Solid” game. Are you looking forward to other projects or will you continue to be involved in the series?
A: “MGS will always be around. I feel a responsibility to continue this series as long as users demand it. But it doesn’t mean I’m going to sit in completely. I’ll probably take a different role in the next game. Maybe I’ll sit in as producer and let the young staff take control of the new series. I really want to go on to new things.”
