Zone of the Enders sequel 'project' revealed; ZOE HD out in Japan Oct. 25

During a Zone of the Enders event today in Tokyo, Kojima Productions announced an October 25 release date for Zone of the Enders HD Collection – for Japan. International release dates for the PS3/Xbox 360 mech game compilation have yet to be announced beyond "fall".

During the event, Hideo Kojima also announced that work has begun on a sequel currently codenamed "Enders Project." Kojipro is prototyping the game in its own Fox Engine, converting physical models into Fox Engine 3D models. The character model shown is more organic than robotic – it's the winsome fellow above, snapped by Famitsu.
