It has been a long time since the official entry of Metal Gear Solid in the long-running franchise of action-stealth video games designed by Hideo Kojima, and a new milestone in sales was recently passed.
The brand’s latest title was the beloved, albeit far from perfect, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, released in 2015 and produced by master Kojima before his expulsion from Konami. It was then released in 2018 Metal Gear Survive, spin-off of the series and latest video game released so far.
No new titles have been released on Solid Snake recently, it’s a surprise to discover i new data in sales of the franchise Metal Gear. As reported by the website Metal Gear Informer, the whole series produced and accumulated a total of 58 million in sales all over the world.
This news comes officially from the Konami website. From 21 March 2021, Metal Gear he added 900,000 copies to overall sales, leading to the updated data shown on the site, and positioning the brand as the second highest-grossing IP ranking, immediately below the series eFootball and above the series PAWAFURU PUROYAKYU.
This is an unexpected finding due to the absence of a new title recently, having now been 4 years since the release of the last spin-off. The surprise also comes from the fact that it is Metal Gear Solid 2 that Metal Gear Solid 3 They were removed from digital shop windows in November 2021, and have yet to be relisted. They have therefore not recently contributed to the sales rankings.
This means that many users have recently completed the purchase of Metal Gear Solid 5, or have discovered the stunning action of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, or even that Metal Gear Survive went better than expected.
News regarding a new Metal Gear have been scarce, although fans have been waiting for a long time a new chapter. There have been rumors that they have fielded a possible remake from Metal Gear Solid 3, whose anniversary was recently celebrated by Hideo Kojima, but nothing official. Other rumors speak of the possibility that Konami is considering lending properties such as Metal Gear And silent Hill to external developers, but even in this case the official news is hiding.
We remind you that our review of UnMetal, the heir of Metal Gear Solid. This title takes Kojima’s world and decides to turn it into a humorous universe, bordering on the absurd.
