this same thursday we report them the existence of a new website that seemed to commemorate the 35th anniversary of Metal Gear, which will be held on July 17, in addition to insinuating upcoming news about the future of this veteran action and espionage saga. Despite the fact that, at first, it seemed quite real, there were not a few users who were suspicious of this new page considering that it appeared a day before the April Fools. Unfortunately, Konami has confirmed that it was indeed a joke performed by a person with whom you have no direct relationship.
“This website is not from Konami. We are currently studying what to do with this page,” a Konami spokesperson confirmed to the media. TRG. Additionally, if we access the page, a pop-up message will appear that highlights the following: “This website was created as an April Fools’ joke to parody Konami and the 35th anniversary auction Castlevaniaand is NOT affiliated with Konami, OpenSea or the series Metal Gear. Nothing on this site should be taken seriously and no real NFTs for sale“.
The above message goes on to explain that the page contains “a couple of hidden easter eggs”, although the owner comments that we shouldn’t try to look for them in the source code since he would find out. “Konami please don’t sue me. Instead, please use the resources you would spend hiring lawyers to purchase the necessary historical footage licenses to replay MGS2 and MGS3 in digital stores”, he concludes.
let’s not lose hope
Although the website of Metal Gear has ended up being a joke -funny or in bad taste, something that we leave to your discretion-, the truth is that there are rumors that Konami will be interested in reviving some of his mythical sagas like Castlevania, Silent Hill and, of course, the one that concerns us today.
