4. Konami's Metal Gear Producer Would Love To Work With Hideo Kojima

During an official Metal Gear livestream this week, Okamura admitted he's not in the position to answer on "behalf of anyone outside the company" but would personally "like nothing better than to work with Mr. Kojima and the rest of the team again" (thanks, VGC).

"If that could happen, it would be the dream."

However, he accepts the "current reality" which is the fact that "people have moved on to new things and new commitments" and he can't make "that kind of demand of anyone" - with the current team now paving the way for the series.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 to Be Revealed Directly After Xbox Showcase

https://www.cinelinx.com/news/call-of-duty-black-ops-6-to-be-revealed-directly-after-xbox-showcase/

RUMOR: XBOX TO REVEAL NEW DOOM TITLE DURING XBOX SHOWCASE, SAID TO BE ON PS5 AS WELL

https://insider-gaming.com/doom-the-dark-ages/

https://insider-gaming.com/doom-the-dark-ages-will-be-on-xbox-and-ps5/

Insider Gaming understands that the next game in the DOOM franchise is set to be revealed during this year’s Xbox Games Showcase on June 9. The game, which has been under the codename/placeholder title ‘Year Zero’ is understood to have the final name ‘DOOM: The Dark Ages’ and has been in development for at least four years.

PlayStation Studios report hints at a major PS5 showcase in early June

https://www.truetrophies.com/news/concord-report-leaks-playstation-showcase

With PlayStation Studios's game pipeline in a chaotic state, it seems we'll only ever see those upcoming Concord trophies from Sony's collective of developers in 2024. However, at least the recent Concord report has leaked the PlayStation Showcase timeframe — or, at least, a PlayStation presentation — where we will see many more PS5 games in the future.

2024 Summer Game Events Streaming Schedule

https://www.cinelinx.com/news/2024-summer-game-events-streaming-schedule/

The Summer is stacked with gaming showcases and events. We’ve got a round-up of them to help you keep track and not miss a thing!

Even with E3 well and truly dead, its ghost lingers and ensures the early Summer months bring a bevy of gaming events/showcases for gamers to enjoy. While Summer Game Fest is doing a solid job of trying to fill the void, without the centralization of E3, it’s a little tougher to keep up with all the streaming showcases going on.
