New Zone of the Enders revealed - Report

Images from Konami event in Japan reveal company at work on new iteration in action franchise under the working title "Enders Project."

A new Zone of the Enders game was announced today during a Konami special event in Japan, according to tweets from an animator in attendance (via Kotaku). The game is currently in development under the working title "Enders Project."

Other details on the project are not available, and as of press time, Konami had not responded to GameSpot's request for comment.

The PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 collection includes the 2001 original PS2 title Zone of the Enders and its 2003 sequel, Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner. Both titles are "fully remastered" and feature high-definition visuals, according to Konami.

I got to play a the demo of ZOE that came with the launch of MGS2 and I was suprisingly blowed away when I played it. I really enjoyed it so this is great news for me. Also looking forward to the HD collection!

Too bad I sold my PS3 dust collector after that sony hacking scandal... I'll just have to keep playing Persona 4 and Z.O.E 2 on my PS2 seeing as my PS3 wasn't backwards compatible thanks to the brilliant people over at SONY.

 

I'll just have to watch it on youtube or maybe if we're lucky it's one of the release titles for the PS4.

 eric_neo3 Well talk about lack of faith.

eric_neo3 96 pts

 WolfGrey  More like lack of trust. Of which I don't give out for free. If Z.O.E 3 comes out on PS3 I'll be surprised, it's far more likely to be a launch title for PS4.

finally! 

 

hope the HD collection delivers the beans, but even then as long as it retains the game play it will be an amazing game.

midnightclubx 53 pts

And glad to see we're finally getting a new game after years of waiting.

Finally, some GOOD news from a Japanese developer. >>

 

But seriously, I am definitely going to buy the HD Collection if it's as good as the MGS COllection and not the SH Collection, because I've played the first ZOE and loved it, but never got the chance to play 2nd Runner. : (

LilRoss2k3 12 pts

 midnightclubx aw man...the 2nd one is a CLASSIC.

Outer_Raven 64 pts

Dude, the first one was great, but the 2nd Runner is a masterpiece. Trust me, it's everything you ever wanted in a mech game and more.

Epic move Kojima.

 

Now all we need is the HD Collection to come out. Judging form the time it's taking to polish the game up, it seems like Konami's taking the HD Collection into serious consideration. I like it.

Announcing ZoE - a full-length action adventure game with the storyline and game designed by none other than Hideo Kojima himself!

 

Naaaah - it's just gonna be another mediocre action game with flashy visuals and gameplay that's fun for maybe a couple minutes.

Zignoff 52 pts

 darktruth007 We'd be more open if that balloon head of an ego person Hideo wasn't behind it, he was good at first then his ego has gotten the better of him. MGS4 while having good gameplay, it had so little between the 12 hours of movies scenes. like only 2 hours of it was gameplay.

 

So while Im happy to hear about this, I don't have much faith in it anymore.

Im certainly happy that ZOE HD will be coming soon and it's great to hear about a new ZOE but they are in the beginning stages so i dont expect it out for another 2-3yrs which may be PS4 or Xbox 720 by then.

Predwarrior 104 pts

Hot holy damn! ZoE was the first game that I felt really captured the grace and power of Japanese mechs, especially in fluidity of control. Sure, there have been tons of mech games, but stuff like Armored Core is more of a simulator, and I want angel wings on my robot, dammit!

aryeec 66 pts

wait...... now i REALLY have to get a ps3 (or ps4)

aryeec 66 pts

oh EFF YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAITED SO FREAKIN' LONG TO HEAR THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BahamutZERO 20 pts

Oh man I'm looking forward to this, I'd also love a ZOE HD collection to go with it if possible

X-RS 98 pts

I wanted to get into some ZOE last night, but I've made an oath to wait for that HD collection.

If Kojima really needs convinving that ther is demand for the series, so be it.

Z.O.E.!

yesssssssssssss!...... that is all.

This is amazing news! Now I can only hope they release it on 360 as well. I loved the first two but I would hate to have to miss out on ZOE3 simply because I went with Microsoft this gen.

 Mariner32 Buy a PS3. Not hard to save up for it AND you'll get to enjoy the exclusive games AND have an amazing 3D Blu-ray player

Agreed, the way they whored out Xenosaga in Namco X Capcom and now this upcoming three way crossover between Namco, Capcom and Sega. I want to see that too!

PS: yay for ZOE project
