Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is getting the E3 demo treatment but Hideo Kojima has revealed that he has been given permission to showcase a potion of the demo before E3 kicks off next month.

Kojima tweeted that he will show some of the demo footage off before the conference in a Tweet. The footage will most likely just show the demo’s opening title screen.

Additionally and most interestingly, Hideo revealed that the Raiden seen in the opening screen (see above) is known as “Black/Dark Raiden”. Just why he is known as this is “a secret”.

Revengeance is expected later this year.

Thanks Andriasang.
