UK games magazine PSM3 is claiming that Zone of the Enders 3 will be released on PlayStation 3 in 2007.

Judging by the copy, a full announcement from Konami and Hideo Kojima is due next month, but beyond that all that's known is that "Kojima Studios" (presumably they mean Kojima Productions) is behind it.

We got in touch with Konami UK this morning to ask if they could confirm the game's existence, but we were told no, they cannot. Which is a bit of a shame, isn't it. We'll let you know when they inevitably do confirm it.

As for those of you who have no idea what we're blathering on about - Zone of the Enders, or ZOE, is a mech action game which ran for two instalments on PlayStation 2, and was arguably more convoluted and waffly, plot-wise, than even Metal Gear Solid has managed. Its return could herald the first game ever to fill a Blu-ray disc. With plain-text.
Even if it's not been confirmed yet, it's pretty obvious that it's going to sometime, judging by what Kojima has said about it in the past.

Hmm, if it wasn't true, Konami probably would have flatly denied it. If they say they can't comment, that makes it look more likely. I would've thought they'd have chosen a more prestigious way of announcing it than a half-baked rumor in some trash magazine.

Yeah. We've made a news post regarding the info up at MGS:TUS and ZOE:TUS featuring the article in the magazine, so needless to say, we're counting on this being actual new information instead of a rumor.
