Hideo Kojima doesn't want to be known as 'the Metal Gear guy'

Hideo Kojima is one of the most well-known developers when it comes to games. This is primarily because of his work on the Metal Gear series. According to an interview with EGM, Kojima doesn't always want to be known as the 'Metal Gear guy'. Kojima also talks about using concepts from the next Metal Gear game for new IP.“I’m often misinterpreted,” Kojima said. “I’ve always said that I want to work on original properties, but Metal Gear offers plenty of benefits. The Fox Engine, for example, took a lot of time and money [to create]; we were only able to develop it because it was intended for the next Metal Gear. In the next game, I’m introducing concepts intended for entirely new intellectual properties using the Metal Gear brand."
