Look at that big blue teasing two.

Metal Gear Rising 2

In a PlayStation 4 lineup trailer show at the Sony booth during the Taipei Game Show, a teaser for what appears to be Metal Gear Rising 2 is shown.

The teaser pops up at 2:46:39 in the linked Twitch stream. Specifically, it’s a “2” created in the style of the Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance logo. It follows The Order: 1886, and ends as soon as it arrives.

For comparison, find the Metal Gear Rising logo below.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance

Thanks, NeoGAF.

Update 02/01/15 at 11:00 a.m.: According to games industry journalist Geoff Keighley, whatever this was is not a tease for Metal Gear Rising 2.

“Slice that rumor: No Metal Gear Rising 2 tease at Taipei games show. Spoke to [Kenichiro Imaizumi] from [Kojima Productions], it is not true,” Keighley said on Twitter.

A Twitter user asked what the Metal Gear Rising-typeface “2” was then. Keighley simply responded with, “#Team 2,” whatever that means.

Update 02/01/15 at 11:27 a.m.: Kojima Productions’ Kenichiro Imaizumi adds, “We don’t know [what that “2” is]. Sounds like it just a countdown number “2”. It’s SCE made trailer.”

Update 02/01/15 at 2:50 p.m.: Despite what Geoff Keighley and Kenichiro Imaizumi are saying, it appears the “2” is a direct rip from the Metal Gear Rising font.

        How many times did I lose in that game. It was un believable sometimes how hard the last couple of bosses were.

        • cheese puffs

          they were fun though. every time i came close to winning, i’d restart the fight. lol

          • https://www.behance.net/cobaltcomet KOKAYI5

            I really liked the first boss with the Minstral. I didn’t like how psycho she was but the fight was fun.

            • cheese puffs

              monsoon and prez armstrong’s boss fight in sam’s dlc – i frigging loved those 2 fights!

              other boss fights were awesome, too, just not as awesome as the ones i mentioned… well for me at least lol

  • Zackasaur

    Interesting! :D

  • tokyobassist

    So what’s the subtitle to this new one gonna be? I need more practical fake words Kojima.

    Also add a goddamn lock on for the next one. All I ask man. Do whatever you want with the story lol.

    • César H. Sandoval

      Death with Destruction…

      DEATHSTRUCTION!

    • Hope in the Interstice

      Revengeance is an actual word.

      • https://www.youtube.com/user/GamingHeroTetsuya TetsuyaHikari

        Sure… In the Urban Dictionary and Webster’s Unabridged dictionary. It’s not a real word, lol.

        • Hope in the Interstice

          Hm. So it isn’t. You’re right.

          I could’ve sworn it was in a dictionary…

    • cheese puffs

      there’s actually a lock-on in mgr, it just doesn’t act like a typical lock-on would. you can even switch through targets with the right stick after you lock-on…

      • tokyobassist

        I didn’t like the way it worked. The new DmC did a similar “smart lock-on” system too and I didn’t like it in that game either.

        For me personally and I’m sure quite a few others, manual lock-on is a necessity in these games. Enemies go off camera (it’s just a design quirk with the hack-and-slash genre) often and manual lock-on helps with that tracking issue quite a bit.

        Aside from that and a more intuitive weapon selection UI, I thought the first game wasn’t the WORST game ever as some people make it out to be even though I rather have had the original Rising. The only thing I found super awful is the story. Should’ve just stuck to retelling the events between MGS2 and 4.

        • cheese puffs

          bro, that’s what i’m telling you. manual lock on IS in the game. you can even switch through targets with the richt stick *after* locking on. if you’ve ever played Anarchy reigns, it kinda works the same way.

          when i said it didn’t work like your typical lock-on would, i meant how rising can do a full 360 rotatation despite the fact lock-on is activated; only thing lock-on does is keep the camera fixed on your target. i figured they made it like that ’cause of the way the square attacks work… you can continuously mash it and the animation changes depending on the direction you point the left stick in — e.g. the way raiden does that kool behind stab attack when you point the analog stick in the opposite direction raiden’s facing. they probably wanted raiden to be able to attack other enemies while at the same time giving players an option to keep the camera focused on one target.

          Yes, MGR does have “smart lock-on”, but it also has manual too…

  • Shippoyasha

    This BETTER not be a ruse! But if it is, the rioting from gamers will be so intense, they will be forced to make it. It’s a win win!

  • vishmarx

    might as well add”teased for PS4″
    since its the only confirmed platform so far

    • Zackasaur

      True, we shouldn’t make platform assumptions without confirmation.

      • vishmarx

        its reasonable to believe that sony might have bought exclusivity for it,
        given sony’s lack of exclusive hns like ms and nintendo and their good relations with kojima

        • estebxx

          it will be quite the megaton on the “Internet” if this game goes exclusive.

          • Sun Streaker

            I’d say it will be one of the biggest, probably a lot bigger than Bayo 2 since bayo 2 rocked a lot of people but in the end it was explained and had it;s own reasoning, Rising 2 has none and shouldn’t besides moneyhatting.

  • Amir

    Well, Kojima was there in person, and knowing about his good relationship with Sony (Look at what he pulled off with P.T.), I believe that this is real.

    Now someone please tweet this picture to him and tell him that we know about it; When he found out that people had discovered P.T. was a new Silent Hill, he came out with it.

  • vishmarx

    its gonna be good few days.
    mgr2,project z, ffxv atr,persona 5 and more

    • XrosBlader821

      haven’t you cought up on what Project Z is? a let down.

  • MrFinalgamer

    Well if it’s getting a sequel, I guess I should suck it up, and play the first game already… (please don’t fuck up Raiden’s perfect ending from MGS 4)

    • bloodiOS

      Spoiler: It fucked everything up =D

      • MrFinalgamer
        • Zackasaur

          METAL GEARRRR.

        • XrosBlader821

          FOX… DIE!!!

          No but Really for all it did to Raidens Character The game is still big fun to play.

      • King Shesh

        Lol but in all seriousness, he should play the game. Raiden’s story isn’t messed up.

    • KingKellogg The Waffle Haggler

      It RUINS MGS4’s beautiful ending, and extends it with crap.

      • krokounleashed

        beautiful ending :>

      • vileBrenman

        How Does it ruin the ending?

        • KingKellogg The Waffle Haggler

          Did you play MGS4? Raidens story was finished, Koji ended it Completely, this trash back peddled and ruined it.

    • PuppetMaster

      It’s a spin-off so you could think as a “what if” story for Raiden.

    • persona_yuji

      Well, just go with the mentality that you’re going to cut the living hell of a Metal Gear Ray with Rules of Nature i the background.

    • Kango234

      Kojima said that it’s just Platinum’s interpretation of the MGS universe also the final boss makes it clear that it’s a parody so just look t it as a fun “what if” game.

    • César H. Sandoval

      They already fucked his perfect ending from MGS2 by turning him into a deadbeat Cyborg dad for MGS4, tho

      MGR actually gives him closure.

  • Woot Woot

    PS4 exclusive too!

    • shogunknight

      Possible. Maybe in japan, but not likely for western release

    • Sun Streaker

      It’s not concrete since they weren’t allowed to say what other platforms it is for, I would hope it’s multiplat since the first game was, anything other than multiplat is moneyhatting.

  • Kuro-Law

    Could possibly be exclusive to asia like most games but multiplat in the west. It would be cool if it were exclusive.

    Nintendo with Bayonetta
    Xbox with Scalebound
    PlayStation with MGR

    Sux for PC if it is but i highly doubt exclusivity.

    • Sun Streaker

      Would be worse than what happened with bayo 2 though, bayo 2 happened because Sony/MS didn’t want anything to do with it and Sega washed their hands and it needed money to happen, Rising is a Konami/Kojima IP which doesn’t and shouldn’t need to beg for funding let alone be in dire straights.

      It would also be a big massive kick in the teeth for fans on Xbox and PC and probably cause an uproar and divide, you don’t take a multiplat game and make it an exclusive, Bayo is the exception but never the rule.

      • Kuro-Law

        Yh which is why i think its unlikely, But I dont really care. Im not a big fan of hack and slash games (didnt even pick up bayo2). Still its extremely unlikely that it is a ps4 exclusive in anywhere other than eastern markets. I cant see konami alienating the entire xbox fanbase let alone PC. Im sure its just playstation brand co-marketing.

      • Luna Kazemaru

        you mean like tomb raider :3 oh wait

        • Sun Streaker

          oh wait what?, did being the better man as a concept utterly die in 2015?.

          No matter way it gets spun it’s not benefitting anyone but Sony/Konami, it doesn’t benefit the fans on other systems, don’t know why you threw in TR when I didn’t mention it because I knew that was bad shit to begin with due to Suwares asshattery and greed coupled with their own fuck ups just like Capcom did to themselves which caused them to side with Sony, they need the money but in turn they’ll split the fanbases further apart.

  • bloodiOS

    Now announce a PS4 port for Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, too. After all, it was really weird how every game showed in the brief preview at very beginning of PlayStation Experience Keynote either already exclusive or got ported to the PS4, except for MGR…

  • penemue

    Don’t know why Xbox One or PC are in the title when the only logo we saw was PS4, and before people even start – it’s obvious I’m aware that there is a chance it could come to those platforms as well. However there has been no mention of those platforms in the teaser whatsoever. If Sal has some other source I’m not aware of I apologize.

    • Solomon_Kano

      Mind you, it was in a Sony sizzle reel, so of course we only saw a PS4 logo. That doesn’t indicate anything as far as it being exclusive or otherwise, since they wouldn’t show an Xbox One logo even if it were multiplatform.

      • Zackasaur

        I think Penemue is aware of that. It’s just odd for an article to assume specific platforms without even indicating that there is an assumption at hand.

        • Solomon_Kano

          Fair enough, it should probably be noted that the PC and Xbox One bit is purely speculation at this point. However likely it may be that those platforms are included in an official announcement, what information we have at present only suggests the PS4.

          • Zackasaur

            Yep, I agree. I just think things should be as explicitly clear as possible.

        • Anime10121

          But they’re tags (likely because the previous game was for all consoles/PC), tags are references to make it easy to find things, not sources of information. Nowhere in the actual article does it specify which consoles.

          • Zackasaur

            Tags are still part of the presentation and include the assumptions. It’s a minor flaw, but a flaw nonetheless. Will we just change the tags for every game when it gets announced for another platform? :P

  • King Shesh

    The original was such a pleasant surprise. It had so much opportunity to be an awful game, but it was really good!
    And the music…oh man

          It was the perfect opportunity haha

    • Gigus

      Lol I loved MGR for the crazy stuff they did. But in the end, I still wanted the “stealth fast paced action” kojima wanted to do the first time he announced the game.

      • KingKellogg The Waffle Haggler

        My problem was the Terrible story and writing. Not to mention the art and design was bad Imo.

        Action stealth sounds super cool.

  • estebxx

    DUDES AND DUDETTES! This is insaaaane, I love the hell out of MGRising and would buy this sequel in a heartbeat, not nearly enough games of this kind is released, can’t wait!

    So fucking good!

    • César H. Sandoval

      Now you’re just getting nasty.

  • PrinceHeir

    I need to finish the DLC missions soon!!!

    It got me thinking. What if Platinum Games offer Metal Gear Rising 1 with all DLCs/missions/skins 1080p 60FPS dual audio as a bonus just like what they Bayonetta 2 that included Bayonetta 1.

    That would be GODLY O____O

  • Fruity_Rider

    KOJIMA IS GOD!
    Based platinum. But pls bring back Sam.

  • PrinceHeir

    So if the Rising 2 would star Frank Yager vs Cyborg Zombies. Kojima is even willing to write the story himself.

    That would be godly though!

    • Eder García

      “That’s what I’m proposing to Platinum and the producer of the project, but they seem to be ignoring me.” what? ignoring the series creator?

      • Dick Mountainjoy

        Well, It is a terrible idea.

  • CoronelCosgrove

    man.. what a disaster.. what a disapointment.. this game is SOOO SHIIIITTTT!!! And now a second one? kojima is spitting in my face.

    I just wished that MGS: Rising (the canon on from the first trailer that was amazing) had neve became MGRising Revengence (that shittiy gamerushly developed, with bad gameplay, graphics and animation.. so stiff! damn)

    • Speedo Redempteur

      rising had bad gameplay AND animation ?

  • -Misaki-

    MGRR2 Would be great. I loved the 1st one, but please don’t make me hyped over something that might not be MGRR2 but something completely not for me. The pain would be double after that Z announcement from SE.

    • -Misaki-

      For the note: I was not expecting anything from SE, it’s just that I miss Square Soft.

      • youngsexynerd

        Perfectly said…. Its not even square soft. Square Enix of the PS2 days was awesome as well! I just miss their JRPGs on consoles! But now we get crap like Murdered Souls Suspect, Cell phone casual party games, and freakign Spelunky……….. ughhhhh

  • pegran

    mgr was shit

    • LunarHaven

      …

    • DesmaX

      You must mean “mgr was the shit”

    • PenguinPlayer

      It certainly feel like it was rushed probably because Konami REALLY wanted to have SOMETHING, anything, to show after the incredibly troubled development of the game.

      I am sure if they don’t rush 2 and focus on the great parts of 1 we might just end up getting a masterpiece.

    • Phil McCracken

      Yep, that’s an opinion all right.

    • SiXXXtySiXXX

      Not nearly as shit as your opinion though.

    • PrinceHeir

      I feel bad for Ghost XD

    • Ghost Doge
    • Greek-God88

      keep hating it wont stop the sequel coming out
      Im sure Rising 2 will be even better than the first game with a proper dev time now.
      im so excited !

      • pegran

        it’s still shit :^)

  • Bart Fatima

    Bring it on

  • Yuntu

    I’m hyped. The first game was just awesome and the OST … damn I loved it :3

  • mesul6anme

    YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!!!!

  • Martian Wong

    So when will be the announcement?

  • Pablo Sanchez

    I don’t get it, first one was awful, a disgrace to the metal gear saga

    • Lastlight

      No it really wasn’t

    • SiXXXtySiXXX

      I had almost forgotten how salty some people were over Rising.

      It’s adorable.

      • Dick Mountainjoy

        Not enough poop for some people.

    • michel

      It was short, but I loved it.

    • César H. Sandoval

      Opinions are so cool!

    • Zackasaur

      In terms of story, true.

      But Metal Gear is a confused mess anyway, so I just let them do whatever the hell they want and enjoy them as individual experiences.

      MGR is pretty fun.

    • Zancrow

      What did you say? “The best game of 2013 and 2014”?
      I agree!

    • Dick Mountainjoy

      Still better story than Peace Walker.

      • Pablo Sanchez

        With? Are you for real?

        • Dick Mountainjoy

          Rising is a fairly interesting character study of Raiden, great cast and boss squad, and the cyborg ninja game everyone wanted after the hallway scene in MGS1.

          PW is a mess of retcons, forgettable villains and faux-loli fanservice to justify turning MGS into a Monster Hunter styled co-op game.

          • PuppetMaster

            What?

      • Pablo Sanchez

        *what

    • The Dark Knight Detective

      Whilst you’re entitled to your opinion but I disagree, you were playing a cyborg ninja, how else did you think it’d play based upon what we’ve seen them (Grey Fox and Raiden) doing in MGS1 and 4? Plus Kojima himself did say the plan for the failed Metal Gear Solid: Rising was to recreate the cutscenes from MGS4 featuring Raiden in a playable format, so again, how else could it have gone besides balls out hack and slash action?

      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gV1BMUg4NsA#t=126

  • SiXXXtySiXXX

    Also, I really hope this is only PS4 exclusive in Asian territories, if it’s exclusive at all. I love Metal Gear Rising more than enough to buy a console for it’s sequel, but I greatly prefer an Xbox controller for action games.

    So c’mon Konami. C’mooooooooooon.

  • Nice Boat

    Yes! Raiden is back! A whole war with only one man

  • Goku

    Please bring back Jamie Christopherson for the music!

    • The Dark Knight Detective

      damn straight

  • StarCrusader23

    I sitll need to play the first game.

  • https://www.behance.net/cobaltcomet KOKAYI5

    The first one was ok but the next one should be big like an open world. Imagine playing Raiden in a sanbox style like the AC or Batman games.

    • Nice Boat

      Holy probabilites Batman—I mean Kokay15

      • https://www.behance.net/cobaltcomet KOKAYI5

        Lol I’d be all for something like that. The thing that killed the first game for me was lack of things to do. I often just fought and ran thru levels. But in an open world the game always feels long with more area to cover and more to do.

    • The Dark Knight Detective

      I dunno dude, I prefer for games like that (Devil May Cry, Bayonetta) to be more level based with an end of level rating as it encourages more replayability as you try to increase your rating. Plus its easier to get back and redo levels were as in open world games once you do a big awesome set piece moment or fight a boss, when that boss is beat, that’s it and the only way to refight them again is either start again from the very very beginning or have a dedicated save file at that moment in time. But yea, keep Rising 2 in the same vain as Revengeance, Devil May Cry and Bayonetta with it’s level and ranking based gameplay.

  • Elle

    I didn’t like MGR that much but cool for the people who want it. :D

    • Sav

      how much did u play of it?

      def one of the better action games to come out in awhile.

      • Elle

        All of it? It just didn’t do much for me. It had a great soundtrack tho.

  • http://www.spaghetti.com/ Kaisenex

    first one was okay…but i still don’t like how they made raiden. they just completely ruined his character for me imo. it would have been cool if it was a gray fox game

  • Ace

    My metal gear is rising if you know what I mean…

    • XrosBlader821

      I bet it is solid by now.

      • izanagi

        SNAKEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

  • Woot Woot

    Still looks like a PS4 exclusive to me >_>

    • SiXXXtySiXXX

      It could be, or it could be multiplatform. The world may never know.

    • Zancrow

      Seriously doubt it.
      This isn’t the same situation as with Bayonetta.

      • SiXXXtySiXXX

        But it could be the same situation as Street Fighter V.

        • Zancrow

          Well, Tomb Rider is only a timed exclusive, right?
          And with Street Fighter it’s Sony backing Capcom because they didn’t have the cash, as far as I know.
          Considering Revengeance is Konami/Kojima Productions property I kinda doubt that this is the same situation. I’m sure they have the money to publish it.
          It would be a really dick move from Sony to make this exclusive.

        • NuclearKangaroo

          even a PC/PS4 “exclusive” deal is unlikely, i dont think konami would pass on the xbone playerbase

  • SuperLuigi

    Nanomachines Son!

  • BlueCereal

    I really want to play Rising but can’t, mainly because I haven’t played any of the games in the series aside from Portable Ops.

    • SiXXXtySiXXX

      You really don’t need any prior series knowledge to play Rising. I went in having only played MGS4 and it was fine.

      • BlueCereal

        I know story takes a backseat in this one but I want to see how Raiden evolves as a charcater and know more about the retuning characters. Still I might pick it up soon.

        • Zancrow

          Returning characters?
          There’s, like, one, I think lol

          You should really pick it up, though, it’s an amazing game.

          • BlueCereal

            I’m sure it is and I’ll definitely get it at some point.

    • Nice Boat

      Raiden was in two games from the franchise: MGS2 and MGS4. Still those games were confusing as hell

  • Warboss Aohd

    Shut up and take my money!

    • Nice Boat

      More like just shut up and take my spine Raiden

    Love it or hate it. Just remember to discuss or debate why in a friendly manner. I’m excited about a possible Rising sequel.

  • Guy Incognito

    More playstation exclusives? As if I needed more reasons to back me up on going with PS4 this gen

    • NuclearKangaroo

      what makes you think its an exclusive? the first game wasnt exclusive, and the trailer in which this was featured also showed multiplatform games such as GTA5 and NBA 2K15

      • SiXXXtySiXXX

        Because PS4 da bes #4theplayers

      • Guy Incognito

        Most devs can’t be arsed with microsoft anymore

        • NuclearKangaroo

          most titles so far this gen and last gen were multiplatform, because its more profitable that way

  • Aldridge517

    I love Raiden, but I really hope this game is about Gray Fox/ Frank Jaeger.

  • NuclearKangaroo

    i hope its a simultaneous consoles-PC release, i loved the shit out of the first game

  • Souji Tendou

    Get HYPE! Oh yeaaaaah.

  • Cael

    I don’t know how, but I really want Sunny to be playable. Maybe just make her an extra you can unlock or something.

    • http://gengame.net Jared Pryatel

      What would she even do? She’s just a 14yo non-cyborg girl, is she not?

      • Cael

        That’s why I also said “make her an extra”. Also, we don’t know how many years have passed after the first game. So she could very well be 28 or something. Not to mention she’s super smart, so for her to come up with an exoskeleton that could rival MGS cybernetics isn’t much of a stretch.

  • Heldronus

    Hopefully we get a PC version too. Rising was a surprisingly good port.

  • disqus_rIjnBIKvqC

    I think a sequel would be good.
    But first they seriously need to fix the camera paning when fighting, and they need more juggle combos in the air. I really liked MGR and I found it addicting and such but the camera really killed it for me.

  • Coloso90909

    Is it a game of Kojima or Sony?

  • DesmaX
  • http://twitter.com/kazumalynx Zero

    Well, damn. That sucks.

    • z_merquise

      It sure was exciting while it lasts.

      Still hoping for Metal Gear Rising 2.

    • Zackasaur

      I’m still having a hard time believing it.

      That is literally the MGR font, stylised correctly.

  • z_merquise

    What if it is this game?

  • Yuntu

    Hype destroyed :(

  • kiri25

    while this is not MGR2 i did notice a few XB1 fans worried this might be exclusive to PS4. Though i dont think western XB1 owners should fear this b/c if Rising 2 is ever announced and if it exclusive to PS4 it would only be so in Japan like the 1st one was.

    I’d find it very odd for Konami to release thier flagship MGSV on XB1 but not Rising 2in the west, so if worried about Rising 2, dont be unless u live Japan lol

  • NuclearKangaroo

    false alarm people, back to defcon 5

  • SiXXXtySiXXX
    • The Dark Knight Detective

      Funny how he says to “SLICE” that rumor.

  • The Dark Knight Detective

    SLICE that rumor….? Wouldn’t be the first for the Pope Dorito to cover for Kojima.

  • PuppetMaster

    Ok now i can’t decide who’s the real troll here. Is it Kojima or Sony? If Kojima than we can expect MGR 2. But if it Sony than this “2” could be anything, be their classic IP’s or new one.

    • Sav

      i say there will be another rising.

  • MasterSensei

    Is there an actual need for a sequel? If the plot does not involve Raiden getting sent back to Victorian Britain so that he can uncover the truth of Jack the Ripper (turns out he was the first person who came up with the idea of Nano-machines and that all the prostitutes that he “killed” were actually subjects that he used to test his theories.) Raiden now has an identity crisis (again) and wonders if he should keep the name of Jack the ripper. The game ends with Jack the Ripper activating a giant mech that resembles Metal Gear which was hidden deep within Buckingham Palace (as it turns out the British Royalty has been in cahoots with Jack the Ripper). Some fights happen and at some point the Big Ben was used as a sword. THE END.

    • Dick Mountainjoy

      I dunno, why the hell are there 4 Big Boss interquels even though 3 was the perfect origin and the follow ups are full of silly retcons and dilutions of his motivations?

      • MasterSensei

        Running out of ideas. The story could have just ended at 4 and everyone would have been fine with that (probably) or have MGS5 be a continuation from 4 and end the series there since MGS4 ended with some kind of cliff hanger. I personally think that Kojima should start a completely new IP, move to greener pastures and create a less convoluted story.

        • Arcliff7

          I thought MGS5 is a continuation of PW?

  • SiXXXtySiXXX

    Close it up friends. The dream is dead (for now, at least).

    • Dick Mountainjoy

      Just like how OGRE wouldn’t be a Metal Gear?

  • Sav

    i’m sure there will be one anyway, maybe they just bsing for now.

  • https://www.behance.net/cobaltcomet KOKAYI5

    Wow. That burst my bubble. Oh well…

  • Lt. Camel

    Well they said they would explain Raiden’s lineage in the new MGS game (“Ground Zeros” in the ending of that particular trailer) I am not sure about “Phantom Pain” so we’ll see. I saw the video game trailer and testing for both games. The latter looks to be incredible & a large world based game.

  • SayNoToRemakes

    Ignore the pitiful attempts to make you believe otherwise- It’s MG Rising 2.

    No inside sources. But it’s pretty obvious to everyone that it is. Anyone remember all the hints Kojima dropped about MGS V before the big the reveal?
