Hideo Kojima has revealed that fans anticipating the next instalment in the Zone of the Enders franchise will have to wait a little longer to get their mitts on the sequel – Zone of the Enders 3 has officially been put on the back burner.
Speaking in a live UStream from his hotel room in Paris during the MGS: Peace Walker European tour, Kojima commented, “Regarding ZOE3, there’s been various things, so it’s been sort of pushed to the back.”
Apparently, it’s all to do with the team at Kojima Productions deciding to focus on the studios’ other new title, specifically, the one Kojima said may be considered “taboo” in the industry.
Kojima previously promised us a sequel to Zone of the Enders 2 last year, and later heavily indicated that the game was in the pre-production stages.
