Kojima Hiring for"Next Gen Metal Gear Solid Series"

We don't know much, but we know this: There will be more Metal Gear Solid. A job listing from Kojima Productions (viaAndriasang) states that the studio is hiring"Next Generation Metal Gear Solid Series Production Staff."

Kojima has been coy about what his next game will be followingMetal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, but this certainly suggests it will, indeed, be yet another Metal Gear Solid game (a series he's promised he was finished with something like three different times in the past). But then the wording is left vague enough that there could still be other possibilities -- maybe Kojima Productions is just hiring more staff to continue working on theMetal Gear Solid: Risingspin-off series. Or then again maybe it's both, as they'vestated in their pasttheir intention of turning Rising into a series that'll continue separate from the official MGS series, which theyalsoplan to continue.

But whatever game this job listing is for, we know it'll be multiplatform: the programmer category asks for candidates with experience on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC. So could a potential Metal Gear Solid 5 be released on the PS3 and 360? First we have to see if Kojima's next game evenisMetal Gear Solid 5, so time will tell.
