MGS 4 delayed until Q2 2008

Well, it's happened. Metal Gear Solid 4 has been delayed until Q2 2008 in order to "provide even greater enjoyment for more customers worldwide."

Previously the game had been set with a release date of "this winter," and things looked to be going well. While it's likely a case of the game needing some more time before it was ready, expect an avalanche of unconfirmed rumors regarding MGS4 going multiplatform in the coming days due to the line about "more customers."

Here's the full press release:

KONAMI announced today that "METAL GEAR SOLID 4 GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS", the latest in the METAL GEAR series, is scheduled to be released in the second quarter of 2008.

KONAMI had initially intended to release "METAL GEAR SOLID 4 GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS" this winter and has been working on the production of the title. KONAMI has decided to delay the title's release in order to make further improvements to the quality of the game and provide even greater enjoyment for more customers worldwide.

KONAMI will continue its efforts to make "METAL GEAR SOLID 4 GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS" meet everyone's expectations.

Further information regarding the release date will be announced as soon as possible.
