Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance will apparently not be making its way to Japan on the Xbox 360. On Konami's Japanese website there is an announcement that, when passed through Google translator, reads, "Due to various reasons, the launch of the Japanese version be made ??only PlayStation 3. We have been looking forward to the launch in the Xbox360, to everyone of the persons concerned, and sincerely apologize for the inconvenience."

 

No explanation has surfaced as of yet, but the Xbox 360 isn't the most popular console in Japan by a long shot so this may or may not have something to do with Konami's decision. Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance has already gotten a lot of heat because of the fact that it strays wildly away from the Metal Gear Solid source material, which could be another factor. What do you think?

 

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance comes out February 19th. Konami has confirmed that the Western release of Revengeance remains unaffected.

First guess: Rising is a disaster and the low number of 360s in Japan make it not even worth printing.
