Konami is on the up and up, with Japanese financial services and global investment bank Nomura Securities officially raising its outlook on the company from Neutral to Buy and predicting another Metal Gear Solid title sometime in fiscal 2014 (that’s April 2013 through May 2014).
Nomura expects Konami’s earnings this year to increase 24 percent to ¥52 billion, mostly from to the publisher’s social like including Dragon Collection and Sengoku Collection. I hadn’t heard of them either.
It’s not actually clear whether the people over at Nomura have some insider information about the game, or are simply making guesses.
In the meantime, Konami’s other Metal Gear game, the game formerly known as Metal Gear: Rising and now known as Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance remains in a somewhat tumultuous development cycle, with the whole thing being cancelled in 2010, resurrected months later, and a new lead producer moving over onto the project in November last year. The game doesn’t yet have a launch date.
