Virtuous Montreal video ignites hype around a new Metal Gear Solid project Leave a comment
Virtuous Montreal, a Canadian-based development studio, recently uploaded a video to their official YouTube channel that has some fans certain that they’re working on a Metal Gear Solid project. This is thanks to certain clues left in said video, as well as prior reporting claiming a partnership between them and Konami.
The first big clue comes around 72 seconds into the video, where fans spotted a lamp being propped up on concept artist Louis-Alex Boismenu’s desk. It’s not centre frame, but it’s clearly visible and a peculiar book to leave present for an official video.
But hey, on its own, who cares!? Why wouldn’t an artist have a copy of The Art of Metal Gear Solid on their desk? It’s apparently a good book, and as an artist it’s not out of question that Boismenu would own it. However, this becomes a bit more more suspect when we look at VGC’s 2021 reporting on Konami reviving a number of their IPs.
