A statement from Konami reports that the Xbox 360 version of Metal Gear Rising will not be launching in Japan, though the PlayStation 3 release is still on schedule.
The announcement states that both Konami and Kojima Productions “have been looking forward to the launch in the Xbox360.” They apologize for the cancellation look forward to any understanding from Japanese customers.
For those worried about what this means for a western release on Xbox 360, there’s no need: Konami confirmed that the game will still launch on Microsoft’s console stateside.
