One of the many complaints the new title has received is the lack of any stealth gameplay; a core element of the entire franchise. Konami, however, has attempted to assuage peoples’ worries that, despite the game’s heavier focus on co-op, there will be stealth.

Jones also went into detail about Metal Gear Survive’s new weapons, equipment and items and how they’ll retain the franchise’s core values:
When asked if development on the game started before Hideo Kojima left the company in 2015, Johnson simply responded with “Yeah, we’re not talking about that right now.” He also confirmed that the game is currently being made in Japan but no developer or director were mentioned. Jones also mentioned that Metal Gear Survive won’t be a $60 title.
Metal Gear Survive will be released in 2017 on PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
