PS4 Release Date For ‘Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain’ Given An R18 Rating By Australia! Hideo Kojima’s Game Remains Stable Despite Complaints

| By

Soon after Hideo Kojima exited from Konami, fans became worried about "Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain" PS4 release date.

There have been claims that the action-adventure stealth video game will be put on ice like what Konami did with "Silent Hills."

However, Game Pur reported that the highly anticipated "Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain" is already set for a Sept. 1, 2015 release date.

Furthermore, Hideo Kojima assured fans that he is still very much involved with the fifth installment of "Metal Gear Solid" despite leaving the gaming studio.

And to strengthen the claims of the game's stability, Australian Rating board has already released a rating to "Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain," which is "R18+ Restricted" citing the "High Impact Themes and Violence, Online Interactivity" for its decision.

Truly, Konami and Hideo Kojima seemed to be unshaken despite previous reports that there have been complaints filed against them by Italian-based neurosurgeon Dr. Sergio Canavero based on the game's character, which resembles the said doctor.

An official police complaint against Konami and Hideo Kojima was already filed Motherboard.Vice reported.

"On April 19, 2015, I received in my email inbox an email coming from the UK from the account [redacted], containing a link which directed to the trailer of the upcoming video game Metal Gear Solid V Phantom Pain, produced by Konami in Japan," the report read. "The trailer features a video with a doctor with my physical likeness and a series of very violent scenes, some computer generated (presumably, they used an authentic video of me, which was then digitized, probably obtained from one of my TED Conference talks)."

"I do not have any suspects," he added. "I have nothing else to add except to declare my willingness to proceed against the people responsible for the facts explained here, which the judicial authority will observe as crimes."
