It seems that outside the USA, N-Gage consumers will now be the first to get their hands on the latest Metal Gear Solid mobile game which will be released by Konami very soon.
The new version of the classic game features original content that can only be found on the mobile platform. Metal Gear Solid Mobile includes never-before-seen dramatic 3D art displays and camera work. The detailed in-game graphics capture the atmosphere of the Metal Gear Solid series and create a depth that completely draws the player into the game, and pushes the capabilities of the mobile platform. Players face the extreme tension of solitary infiltration in this version of the tactical espionage action game developed in conjunction with Ideaworks3D and utilizing its Airplay 3.5 SDK. An in-game camouflage system utilizes colour samples from the scenery of the real world captured by the handset’s camera. Moreover, additional controls are introduced that are made especially for mobile devices.
"We’re excited to see Konami tap into the performance and community features we’ve built into the N-Gage platform," said Gregg Sauter, Director, Third Party Games Publishing, Nokia. " Metal Gear Solid on N-Gage will raise the bar with respect to graphical detail and made-for-mobile features. We look forward to the launch of this great franchise on N-Gage."
"It is my sincere hope that global Nokia N-Gage users will experience the appeal of "Metal Gear Solid" that has been brought to the mobile platform in the form of "Metal Gear Solid Mobile," said Hideo Kojima, Executive Producer of Kojima Productions, Corporate Officer of Konami Digital Entertainment Co., Ltd. "I believe that this cooperation between Nokia and KONAMI will form the perfect match to share the vast potential of mobile entertainment content with users all around the world."
