Metal Gear Rising will be playable at E3 this year

Hideo Kojima, who isn't involved in the title's development which Platinum Games is now handling, has revealed a playable demo of Metal Gear Rising will feature at this year's E3.

Stealth has been removed from Rising because it doesn't fit the new direction, revealed Platinum boss Tatsuya Minami. At PS Vita's announcement, dev collaboration got serious.

Minami-san at first thought the offer of working on Metal Gear Rising was a joke, and Hideo Kojima said they "asked a second time one year later." Talk really started at Vita's unveiling.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is releasing on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC this year.
