Kojima Productions announced today that, in an effort to finalize the game, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, will be delayed to Q2, 2008, putting yet another strain on the struggling Playstation 3 platform.

MGS4 was originally scheduled to be released in early 2008, but Konami decided to delay the launch in order to make needed improvements, the company said in a statement today.

“Konami has decided to delay the title’s release in order to make further improvements to the quality of the game and provide even greater enjoyment for more customers worldwide,” the company said. “Konami will continue its efforts to make Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots meet everyone’s expectations.”
