According to the English Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance website, the main premise of the story is that Raiden has been contracted for VIP protection, military training, and other duties by Private Military and Security Companies in a developing country piecing itself back together after a bloody civil war, but then the country is suddenly overrun by cyborgs, forcing Raiden to go back to battle again. The trailer also implies that he may have reverted back to his Jack the Ripper persona, and that some cyborg bald men in black suits and shades with similar high-frequency blades to Raiden will be involved in the story.
While the game was originally to be set in between MGS2 and MGS4, Kojima has confirmed that the game takes place AFTER Metal Gear Solid 4. This shift was apparently made to give Rising it's own self-contained story and allow Platinum some creative freedom.

Oh, and apparently there is ANOTHER new trailer tomorrow, December 12.
