Metal Gear Solid artist Yoji Shinkwawa has said that fans should expect a ‘special surprise’ to coincide with the 25th anniversary of the IP.

Indeed, it was Shinkawa-san’s sketchy, brushstroke artistic stylings that have been synonymous with the Metal Gear Solid franchise.

As far as the surprise goes, I don’t imagine it will be a new game or an HD update of the original or anything like that; but I will be more than happy to be proved wrong.

You can see the announcement on the official Metal Gear Solid Facebook page.
