The end of the saga.
By
Brian AlbertMetal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima says The Phantom Pain will be the final game in the "Metal Gear Saga."
Kojima has
made claims like this before, but in a video interview with IGN, he tackles that reputation head on.
"I always say 'this will be my last Metal Gear,'" Kojima said, "but the games in the series that I've personally designed and produced -- Metal Gear on MSX, MG2, MGS1, 2, 3, 4, Peace Walker, and now MGSV -- are what constitute a single 'Metal Gear Saga.' With MGSV, I'm finally closing the loop on that saga."
