That's according to Eric Bossick, the voice and motion capture artist behind Silent Hill 4's protagonist, who says he's working with Kojima on the new game.

"I am working on a future Metal Gear, not to be released until next year summer at the earliest, if not later then that," he told Silent Haven.

"I'm doing motion capture only. I can 100% say my voice will not be involved in this. I don't even know what the title is, they are all very secretive and sometimes even the scenes I act out I don't even know the full story, because they want to keep it secret.

"I suppose it is fine to mention I am working on it, everybody knows Kojima is making something now, and I posted the photo on my page here with him," Bossick added. "The only thing is that I can't ever answer any questions about it or talk about, not for sometime."

Rumours of Metal Gear Solid 5's development have circulated for a number of months, though Konami has not officially announced the project. However, back in June Kojima reportedly told a French games magazine that the title was in development.
