Speaking to VG247, Hideo Kojima mentioned the possibility of more Metal Gear spinoffs, specifically mentioning Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater’s The Boss as a character he’d be interested in focusing on.

“In the future I may make other games, maybe featuring The Boss as a main character,” Kojima told VG247. “That’s something I want to make personally, but as far as a series of spin-offs—there may be another Rising in the future, but it’s not something I want to make a habit of.”

Raiden’s own Metal Gear spinoff, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, launched earlier this week on PS3 and Xbox 360. Our own Andrew Fitch liked it quite a bit and reviewed it favorably.
