Metal Gear Solid 5 Release Date News: Torture Scene Not Controlled By Player? Game Creator Reveals Users Will Not Include Playable Torture

Metal Gear Solid 5 creator Hideo Kojima commented on the game's torture scene, confirming its important role but stating it will not be controlled by the player, Stack.com reports.

"If the violence will give new emotions that are important to the game, I want to put it there, especially with this game where one of the main topics is revenge," Kojima told EuroGamer.

"I don't want to walk around that. [But] I didn't want to go as far as having playable torture. The part of Metal Gear Solid 5 that has torture is non-playable."

Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes may not have exactly captivated the hearts and minds of gamers worldwide after the recent Tokyo Game Show demos, but director Hideo Kojima is still surging ahead - the man himself actually provided a few updates via his official Twitter account about the game, GamingBolt.com reports.

"I got sea sick from checking the dash in 30 fps. I now decided to remove the noise in camera. Hard to feel few types of controller w multi-platform, multi-generation & multi-tablet as we don't adjust the precise button location anymore," the developer announced.

Komami announced that Metal Gear Solid 5's The Phantom Pain will be 300 times larger than its predecessor Ground Zeroes, opening the prospect of boosts in sales.

Keith Sutherland, 24's lead actor, has been tasked with voice acting the Snake character, revealing the protagonist's new sound, UberGizmo.com reports.

Konami, the Metal Gear Solid 5's developer, released a nine-minute trailer headlining the game, revealing the opening to Ground Zeroes, the still unexplained 'prologue' to Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, Metro.com reports.

The developer has not announced the exact storyline of Ground Zeroes and has not given much information about it, but implies that it will be available before The Phantom Pain.

Among the features shown off in this new video is that there is still plenty of need to actually be quite sneaky when you are running through the missions, Examiner.com reports.

Two other trailers featuring Metal Gear Solid 5 gameplay were released last week at an event in Tokyo, where they were filmed.

While Konami has not announced an official release date for the game, it is expected to be available on next-generation consoles Playstation 4 and Xbox One by 2014.
