Zone of the Enders HD Collection Message Board older than one year ago

Life cannon on stand-by!

The original titles have been bundled and will be released as an HD collection.

Now that Platinum Games has saved Metal Gear Rising from certain doom and slapped another crazy word on the title, we're all anxious to check out Metal Gear Rising: Reveangence. If you're also one of those people looking forward to grabbing Zone of the Enders HD Collection, Konami has some synergy planned.

During Konami's pre-E3 press briefing, Hideo Kojima revealed an early-access demo for Metal Gear Rising: Reveangence would be included with Zone of the Enders HD Collection. He didn't go into any details about how players will access the demo, but at least we know the important first step: you have to buy Zone of the Enders HD Collection. PSN and Xbox Live users will be able to access the same demo at a later date.

During a Zone of the Enders event today in Tokyo, Kojima Productions announced an October 25 release date for Zone of the Enders HD Collection - for Japan. International release dates for the PS3/Xbox 360 mech game compilation have yet to be announced beyond "fall".

During the event, Hideo Kojima also announced that work has begun on a sequel currently codenamed "Enders Project." Kojipro is prototyping the game in its own Fox Engine, converting physical models into Fox Engine 3D models. The character model shown is more organic than robotic - it's the winsome fellow above, snapped by Famitsu.

Anxious mech pilots antsy to get back to space will get their chance this autumn when Zone of the Enders: HD Collection launches on Xbox 360 and PS3. For those of you who've never heard the word "autumn" before, it's just a fancier way of saying "fall."

The Zone of the Enders: HD Collection features both the original Zone of the Enders and its sequel, Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner. It was originally announced back at E3, both as a disc product and as a downloadable title.

Konami has announced that the Zone of the Enders HD Collection will be released on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 this autumn...

Metal Gear Solid 3D: Snake Eater will arrive in 2012, according to series creator Hideo Kojima. The detail confirms wonky words from Konami in late July that the game wouldn't make its announced 2011 launch.

Andriasang also reported that Kojima gave an "early to mid 2012" release window for the Zone of the Enders HD Collection. The Metal Gear Solid HD Collection will launch in Japan on November 23, with the North American launch "this winter."

Many know Hideo Kojima as the mastermind behind the Metal Gear franchise, but last night, the developer Tweeted about one of his other legacies -- Zone of the Enders. Yes, Kojima is at work on Zone of the Enders HD Collection and apparently working on the cutscenes. Take a look...
