Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is coming to the PC, series creator Hideo Kojima announced during a recent podcast (via Joystiq).

News of the port was later confirmed by Platinum Games creative producer Jean Pierre Kellams over Twitter.

No further information about the PC version of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance was divulged and a Konami representative was not immediately available to comment.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance launched for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in February. Developer Platinum Games previously stated that it is interested in making games for the PC and publishing them through Valve's Steam downloadable games service.

YAY! SHOVELWARE! :D


You can always count on Konami to throw out some bones not completely deprived of all the meat on the bone.

They only did this because the game had crappy sales :p

OH OH OH! MAYBE WE'LL GET THE FAILED HD COLLECTION TOO!

@telaros I'd beg to differ and say they did this to get all the console sales they could before releasing it on a platform full of pirates. Smart in my opinion. It's not like people even held out for a PC release because it hasn't been talked about until now.

@jinzo9988 @telaros Actually, they had talked about a PC release many times before. Also, great job stereotyping PC Gamers, many console gamers pirate console games too you know. I'd bet that people have already pirated this game on PS3 and/or 360.

@jinzo9988 @Link3301 @telaros I've seen console games get pirated weeks before the PC version even when they have the same release date. Do you want to know where most of the leaks before release are? On the consoles. Namely the 360.

If you think that people on the consoles who can get it before the release date and for free aren't going to do it, then you're just as much out of your damn mind.

@jinzo9988 @Link3301 @telaros well you just justified the word stereotype before you mentioned a platform full of pirates and now you said that it is more common to pirate that is where stereotypes come from dudging the whole thing from one part

@Link3301 @jinzo9988 @telaros Not confirmed until now, and compounded by the fact that it's been this long after release. Also, if you think pirating console games is more common than PC games then you're out of your mind.

Sweet. I've been meaning to pick this up on the 360 but I've been too lazy. I prefer games on PC so the laziness paid off I guess.

@Simplythebest12 It will look better, but I'd hate to play it on mouse and keyboard. Games like this often fare better with a controller, so that is what I shall use. Will be the first game in a long while I'll have purchased twice :D

@Simplythebest12 Nah, this game will probably be best with a game pad, luckily we have those on PC, so we don't need to worry.

I tried to get into this game. I love MGS and hack n slash... Something about the way the controls worked just turned me off :(

About time, Kojima promised Metal Gear Solid:Rising for all 3 platforms, but Platinum only now decided to make it for PC, i pray they aint doing a sloppy job with the port.

@ESB This is definitely a decision from Konami, Platinum already stated a few times that they don't make PC games because they lack the skills to do so and for some reason also refuse to outsource instead.

@koospetoors @ESB It's sometimes better to be safe than sorry, when it comes to outsourcing. Look at the mistakes Capcom made.

@ESB I think this was decision by Konami, not platinum. Konami doesn't have control over any of Platinum's other games.

I was eventually going to get it on the PS3, but since PC versions are usually cheaper...

As a pc gamer, I never really cared about that franchise. From what I've seen its just a hack n slash with cyborg. Still good for people who like the genre but it is not my cup of tea.

@El_Zaggy You heard wrong. This game is a spin-off.

Everything this game is, the actual series is the complete opposite in every single way.

Good news for those who want to play it - but will it become a sloppy pc port, or have some quality features...i.e. being able to change more than just the screen resolution..?
