Konami reveals Metal Gear Solid Touch

Japanese publisher and developer Konami has finally revealed the meaning behind

its Metal Gear teaser earlier this month

– and as predicted by one eagle-eyed reader, it is indeed a new iPhone and iPod Touch outing.

Metal Gear Solid Touch is an original title based on the characters and events of recent PS3 release MGS4, and offers direct control through Apple’s touch screen. The game will include eight levels upon its release later this month, though further levels are promised at a later stage.

Also confirmed are iPod Touch and iPhone outings for survival horror franchise Silent Hill, rhythm-action series Dance Dance Revolution and arcade classic Frogger.
