Developers Release Trailer
Outer Heaven, the mod team developing a remake of the original Metal Gear, has cancelled its project. In the wake of this cancellation, it released a trailer for its unfinished game.
Konami has slapped the legal ban-hammer down on recent 'fan remake' project regarding the Metal Gear series, so developers have released a final trailer on what game would had been like if they were allowed to finished it without legal issues from Konami.
The team was highly invested in its project. It had even snagged David Hayter, the voice of Snake up through Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, to provide voice work. You can watch the trailer below.
Metal Gear Informer corresponded with Ian Ratcliffe, a developer attached to the project. They were told that "we can no longer go ahead with the project, it seems like the guys over at Konami couldn't agree on a decision so had no choice but to shut us down."
Konami was originally okay with the project under the condition that it couldn't be produced for profit, which the team had been honoring. Some fans have begun to believe that the shutdown is cause to assume that Konami may be working on its own remake of the title.
Well no surprise here, I was wondering why Konami took so long to act on this 'project'.
