Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance celebrates 13 years of unapologetic action

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance turns 13 today. Originally released in North America on February 19, 2013, the collaboration between Kojima Productions and PlatinumGames remains peak hack-and-slash action.

It’s fast, loud, and completely unapologetic. Raiden’s high-frequency blade, the precision of Blade Mode, and the game’s relentless pace still make it a standout in the Metal Gear series. The music rocks, too! 🥳🎂🎉

To celebrate, we’re revisiting the final trailer “cut” by Hideo Kojima. It’s a great reminder of how much energy Rising brought to the series.
