Hideo Kojima has described upcoming PSP title Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker as the "ultimate masterpiece".

According to Kotaku, series creator Kojima revealed that Peace Walker was initially going to be called MGS 5, insisting that it isn't just a spinoff.

Kojima also tweeted: "Our goal was to create a traditional MGS game for PSP in the beginning. How do we translate it over on the PSP... but once we started the planning the direction slowly shifted toward a MGS that evolves on a handheld.

"We did not think about the low specs, moreover we decided to make a next-gen game on a portable device."

The debut Peace Walker trailer was recently made available online.

Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker is due to be released for the PSP in Europe on May 27.
