Zone of the Enders HD arriving in autumn

Zone of the Enders, Hideo Kojima’s contribution to the battle mech genre, will see its high-definition release in autumn of this year, according to Konami. Yes, they’ve narrowed it down to 3 of the remaining 10 months of 2012. It’s helpful, but not quite what I’m looking for.

The Zone of the Enders HD Collection package containing Zone of the Enders and Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner will release on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 and features a graphical overhaul. The original Zone of the Enders is often jokingly referred to as the game you got when you bought the Metal Gear Solid 2 demo, but it wasn’t bad. And the sequel is damn good, if stupid hard in spots. I’d recommend picking it up for The 2nd Runner alone if you missed that the fi🌠rst time around.
