On the latest episode of weekly webcast Kojima Station, Kojima Productions teased the release date for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is nearing its announcement.

“I know you’ve all been eagerly await for word on releasing timing,” a Kojima Productions spokesperson said during the broadcast. “I think we should be able to announce that soon, so look forward to that. It’s only a little longer.”

As far as upcoming events go, The Phantom Pain will be at the Taipei Game Show on January 31 with “new information.”

In terms of development, The Phantom Pain is currently just before the bug check phase, as the team is currently adjusting some of the game’s newly introduced elements.

Taipei game show is next week.

After that, GDC in march. I feel like it's gonna be announced at one of the two.

 

[Slowdive]

Can't wait.

[Good Guy Gone Bad]

6/12/15 for continuitys sake.

 

[bombshell]

V/V/201V?

It is a Tuesday...

 

[iMax]

I really want a "available in 24hrs" announcement. Kojima would set the internet on fire.

[420 Blaze It]

May 5 baby!

I'm expecting a September release.

 

[braves01]

When I was looking at the Walmart preorder yesterday, the ship date they listed was the first week of November, which seemed unusual for a placeholder date.

V/V/201V?

It is a Tuesday...

May 5, 2015. Yes, that is a Tuesday.

 

[McDougles]

READY YOUR BROWSER EDITING TOOLS!

Am I that predictable?

 

[Appollowexx]

I'm thinking June like MGS4.

If not June then probably September to kick off the pre-holiday schedule.

“I know you’ve all been eagerly await for word on releasing timing,” a Kojima Productions spokesperson said during the broadcast. “I think we should be able to announce that soon, so look forward to that. It’s only a little longer.”

I think June or September/October.

 

[WhiskerFrisker]

 

[Grisby]

Quit jerking me and give the date already.

 

[Toa TAK]

Man, if you thought teasers for teaser trailers were bad...

Just hand me the date Kojima, so I can turn on my hype.

 

[Storm Raider]

201V gonna be a good year.

 

[KojiKnight]

An announcement for an announcement... I can't think of a single other industry where people doing this...

 

[Alcoholikaust]

Alright Dawg lets do this.

Edit: 5/5//15

 

[akidnamededdy]

An announcement of an announcement, cool.

Really don't like that it's cross gen. Especially in 2015.

Oh well, hope it's soon.

 

[JayEH]

The entertainment industry in general is like this.

 

[Betty]

Hopefully this year.

Hopefully a summer release.

Hopefully a special edition with DD plushie.

 

[chicagocubsfan]

Have my debit card ready for that sweet CE that I'm sure they'll make.

Not a fan of crossgen either but I can't be the only one who doesn't mind the "cross-gen graphics" considering it's 1080p60fps eh? And I still like the graphics too.

 

[Deckard Chapel]

May 5, 2015. Yes, that is a Tuesday.

I really, really hope that this is the release date. Not only is it catchy and ironic [the whole V/V/201V] - it's close and I am impatient.

 

[xxracerxx]

I am on the V/V/201V train now. Choo Choo!

 

[Lulubop]

No PC delay pls.

Of course it's gonna happen tho.

 

[Mookie1515]

Gonna be another punch when it isn't announced, though. A red, twisty handed, robot punch.

 

[Dick Justice]

 

[KojiKnight]

But will we get PC day 1 is the real question?

 

[ThatGuyAgain]

An announcement for an announcement... I can't think of a single other industry where people doing this...

Apple does this constantly.

Yup the game is certainly one of the better looking "crossgen" games.

 

[Creaking]

STANDING

ON THE EDGE

OF THE RELEASE DATE

 

[Mifec]

If we don't get a PC simultaneous release at least hope it has all the Nvidia bells and whistles.

 

[brau]

V/V/201V?

It is a Tuesday...

It is.

[Not75Drops]

Is this still coming to 360/PS3? I mightn't be getting a PS4 for a good while but might get this beforehand even it it doesn't run as great as the current gen versions.

 

[Toa TAK]

I don't see it as a problem at all. The game looks great, and I'm happy that owners who haven't switched yet are still getting the chance to play.

 

[Ryan_MSF]

After all this hype, all this excitement, all the guessing, im not sure how I'm gonna feel when we know the release date haha! Probably a complete sense of disbelief!

 

[Slowdive]

Yeah it's still coming.

 

[brickarts295]

Betting Time!
I'd say it's coming Fall, more specifically September. May V just seems to soon but I won't complain if it does end up coming on May.

 

[WhiskerFrisker]

lol this is both appropriate considering it's Mgs 4 and fitting since it sums up my reaction.

 

[Euron]

#TeamJune Reporting for Duty!

 

[zkorejo]

Finally they speak about announcing the release date.

I hope it will be released before the summers.

 

[Love Deterrence]

Hai!

...

Hai.

 

[STILLethal]

I really, really hope that this is the release date. Not only is it catchy and ironic [the whole V/V/201V] - it's close and I am impatient.

Same, that would be awesome, and memorable.

 

[Thaumaturgic Tomato]

Traditional big game release day is usually Tuesday, so



V/V/201V


edit: poop got beat,heh. But seems like a way Kojima would promote it. I can picture this V date version appearing at the end of the announce trailer.
