Released for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Microsoft Windows, it is a spin-off in the Metal Gear serial, and is set four years later on the events of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. In the game, players control Raiden, a cyborg who confronts the individual armed forces company Desperado Enforcement, with the gameplay focusing on fighting enemies using a sword and other weapons to perform combos and counterattacks. Through the use of Bract Mode, Raiden can cut cyborgs in wearisome move and steal parts stored in their bodies. The series' usual stealth elements are too optional to reduce combat.

The game was originally being developed internally by Kojima Productions, who announced the game in 2009 under the title of Metallic Gear Solid: Rise.

These features can be employed strategically, for instance disabling opponents, finding weak points and gaps in armor, severing back up columns to collapse ceilings or walls onto enemies, deflecting enemy fire, or cutting through objects to remove enemy cover.^{[5] [6]} However, inbound into Blade Mode reduces Raiden's energy to the point that if dropped to a certain level, it cannot be used.^[7] Throughout the story the player obtains the Ripper Manner, a country which enhances Raiden's power for a limited time facilitating the use of Bract Mode.^[8]

"cut and take"), and involves "cutting" through enemies and "taking" parts, free energy, armament, items, and data from the bodies of dismembered cyborgs and robots.^{[five] [6] [9]} This maneuver tin exist employed when attacking an enemy during Blade Mode and helps Raiden gain energy.^[7] When completing a mission, the player volition be rewarded with a specific number of points depending on their performance and will receive a class, with the highest being "S". These points allow them to purchase upgrades for Raiden'due south equipment.^[10]

The histrion tin behave out reconnaissance using a visor. Through this, the player can verify the areas and proceed to the objective fugitive contact with enemies.^[11] Hiding in a cardboard box makes sneaking easier for Raiden.^[12] Being spotted by an enemy triggers the "Warning Mode", in which Raiden is assaulted by multiple enemies for a determined fourth dimension.^[thirteen] The player besides gains assistance from Bladewolf, a canine-like robot that gathers map information for Raiden.^[xiv]

Development [edit]

Equally Metal Gear Solid: Rising [edit]

A promotional render of Metal Gear Solid: Rise

Subsequently Metal Gear Solid iv: Guns of the Patriots was released, Hideo Kojima started coming up with ideas for another Metal Gear game. The game was meant to feature The Boss and her comrades, the Cobra Unit of measurement, as main characters. Notwithstanding, the lack of experience from the younger staff in accuse and the lack of interest from Kojima resulted in this project being scrapped. Afterwards, a member suggested turning it into a sidestory focused on Raiden since said character was featured in Guns of the Patriots and the staff agreed to develop Metallic Gear Solid: Rising.^[36] It was originally conceived to chronicle the serial of events that resulted in the transformation of Raiden into his cyborg ninja persona in Metal Gear Solid 4.^{[v] [9]} Rising would accept taken place during a point in the series' chronology at which Raiden had already begun his transformation into cyborg form, albeit with a dissimilar and somewhat more than rough advent from the one seen in Metal Gear Solid 4.^{[9] [37]}

The game was commencement hinted during Kojima's keynote presentation at the 2009 Game Developers Briefing in San Francisco where the presentation's end showed "The Next MGS" with Raiden equally a cyborg standing next to the title.^[38] Prior to the announcements of the game, Kojima Productions featured a inaugural timer on their website until the mean solar day that Rising was announced. The serial' traditional tagline of "Tactical Espionage Action" was also altered to "Lightning Bolt Action," a play on the fact that Raiden's name is Japanese for "thunder and lightning."^{[37] [39]} The game was officially announced at E3 2009 at the Microsoft press conference. A teaser trailer was released by Kojima, although he would be serving only equally executive producer for the game, as all of his input was with Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker.^[forty] The game was initially only appear for the Xbox 360 but was later confirmed for the PS3 and Windows platforms.^[41] It would utilise a brand new game engine, rather than the Metal Gear Solid 4 engine.^[42]

The game's original embrace artwork was leaked on Xbox Live on June 10, four days before E3 2010.^[43] During Microsoft's E3 press conference on June 14, Kojima introduced the game's original lead designer, Mineshi Kimura, who unveiled a new trailer which included cutscene and playing footage.^[6] The game's creative producer, Shigenobu Matsuyama, and Kimura again presented the trailer on June xvi during Konami's E3 press conference, then took stage, further clarifying the game'south mechanic.^[39] Concern had risen over the game'southward realistic depictions of man dismemberment during player-controlled sequences, a difficult limit for Japan'southward Computer Entertainment Rating Organization, which may necessitate censorship in the domestic Japanese release of the game.

Kimura stated that Rise would acquit on the serial tradition of encouraging players to progress through the game without killing, noting that there is a moral departure between attacking cyborgs or robots and attacking human beings, and that there is a "sure virtue to simply disabling your enemies instead of killing them."^[5] While it was considered of import to give the players liberty Matsuyama indicated that players would never be rewarded for killing human opponents, and that the game would be designed and so that players would never be forced to do so.^[45] Specifically, the game's stealth elements would have emphasized Raiden's considerable speed and agility through what Matsuyama describes as "hunting stealth." Dissimilar the stealth of previous titles, in which players remained hidden and avoided combat, players in Ascent would instead apace stalk their enemies and employ acrobatic maneuvers to stay out of sight while closing in. This ties in with the game's zan-datsu feature, assuasive them to casualty upon enemies to obtain weapons, items, and free energy.^[45] Kimura noted that he wanted Raiden to be able to move like he did in the Metal Gear Solid four trailers, and to show "the stealth of the sword, and the forcefulness of not fifty-fifty losing to the gun, and the fright and power you lot have with this blade."^[nine]

At TGS 2010, Sony announced that the PS3 version of Metal Gear Solid: Rising would be playable in 3D.^[46] In January 2011, several pieces of concept art for Ascent were displayed at Yoji Shinkawa's two-week exhibit, The Art of Yoji Shinkawa, hosted by the Konami Style Shop in Tokyo.^[47] During late 2011, information technology was announced over that Matsuyama had moved to a different partitioning inside Konami and that Yuji Korekado had taken over as the game's lead producer.^[48] Additionally, Kojima said Metal Gear Solid: Rise is "moving forward"; Kojima had stated the game remains significantly different from existing Metal Gear games, although he has retained an element of control over it and volition not permit it stray likewise far from the serial' roots.^[49] He advised fans to try it even though the game would not focus on stealth.^[50]

Motion to PlatinumGames [edit]

Despite having thought out stories and scenarios for the game, Kojima Productions were finding it hard to design the game around the cutting concept. The project was quietly cancelled in tardily 2010, and whilst Kojima had considered moving the project to developers abroad, he felt that a Japanese developer would exist more suited to produce a ninja action game.^[51] In early 2011, Kojima met PlatinumGames' Atsushi Inaba who asked him virtually the state of Metal Gear Solid: Rising and Kojima subsequently requested them to work in the game.^[52] This new version, titled Metallic Gear Rising: Revengeance, was first revealed via a trailer shown at the Spike Video Game Awards on December 10, 2011.^{[53] [54]} PlatinumGames requested a change of setting in society to take less restrictions in the creation of the game.^[55] Shortly after starting development, PlatinumGames discarded the stealth element, with Kojima noting that the original staff did not discover information technology fit with loftier speed action.^[56] However, they were incorporated equally Inaba establish the original game organisation likewise "boring."^[57] Artist Yoji Shinkawa worked in the game but only to pattern Raiden,^[58] while freelancer artist Kenichirou Yoshimura is the character designer whose objective is making his piece of work fit with Shinkawa's fashion.

There was also a need to reduce the length of cutscenes so that it would residuum the playing time. However, no role of the script was removed in the process.^[xx] Human being soldiers were removed from the game to avoid censorship bug in Japan.^[one]
