Welcome to the Zone of the Enders 3 (ZOE3) area of ZOE:TUS. Please visit the ZOE3 INFORMATION section for any new developments regarding the next ZOE title.

After the amazing ZOE: The 2nd Runner, many people -- especially those who became fans of the Zone of the Enders series -- immediately began speculating on what the next high speed robot action experience would be like, particularly on next-gen platforms.

Since the establishment of Kojima Productions, word on Zone of the Enders as a series seems to have diminished quite a bit. Many fans feel the team's last ZOE work was a success, and, hopefully, ZOE2 mechanical designer Yoji Shinkawa, director Shuyo Murata, and sound programmers Toshiyuki Kakuta, Akihiro Honda, and several other Kojima Productions members who worked on the series will consider taking part in the development of the next Zone of the Enders title.

Although no official word has been given yet on the next installment (most likely partially due to the fact that the KP team is busy developing Metal Gear Solid: Rising, Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, Metal Gear Arcade, etc.), it has been made evident that ZOE producer Hideo Kojima has shown interest in the idea of a new Zone of the Enders game and would like to make another sequel possible in the future, after all of these Metal Gear projects.

Although ZOE fans were disappointed to see not even a hint of any plans for a ZOE game at neither E3 nor TGS 2009, Hideo Kojima has gone as far as to promise a sequel to ZOE2 sometime in the future. However, because the team is very busy with the aforementioned projects, the production line at Kojima Productions is full, so no timeframe was given.

For now, the main page and the ZOE3 INFORMATION page will be updated as soon as ZOE:TUS discover any new ZOE3 or related information. Check the main page occasionally and be sure to stop by the forums for discussion.
