GameRevolution: "The breakup between Konami and famed Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima is one that was not only controversial, but unfortunate. With it, the Kojima era of Metal Gear has come to a close. Given the occasion, one would think that Konami would go out of its way to promote the wizardry that Kojima and the staff at Kojima Productions conjured to make one of the highest rated games of all-time. Negative. Instead, it made a strong effort to remove any labeling referencing either party, from the game box to marketing material. Kojima has always been clever. His response to the ordeal couldn't possibly be any better. Comprised of multiple chapters each with several episodes, MGSV: The Phantom Pain is formatted like an episodic tale. Think of it as being a multi-episode television show, with the action sandwiched between an introduction and conclusion, each filled with credits to introduce viewers to who was behind the production."

Hardcore Gamer: "Nearly thirty years ago, a man by the name of Hideo Kojima had a vision of a grand stealth game. Over the multiple decades he and his own studio (Kojima Productions) continued to iterate on the idea, bringing along his remarkable attention to detail, even for the smallest aspects that many players may have failed to realize. With the unfortunate events occurring at Konami which lead to his departure, his final project under his studio is more of a swan song to everything he has accomplished, and what a way to go out."

USGamer: Hideo Kojima has never been what you would call a conservative designer. From the very start, he strained against the limitations of the medium, often with brilliant results. But with Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, Kojima has taken a different approach. For what will almost certainly be Kojima's final turn with the series, he has thrown the proverbial kitchen sink into The Phantom Pain, producing what is easily the most expansive game in the series.
