Platinum's Atsushi Inaba revealed that the team had to add stealth back into MGR: Revengeance because it would have become "very dull" if it was all-action all the time.
The smoke from Metal Gear Solid 4 has cleared, but there are still traces of the Patriots project that remain scattered around the world. They re-emerge in Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, led by a hulking cybernetic warmonger named Sundowner. Long-time MGS supporting character Raiden is the only one who stands in his way.
