Highlights

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater showcases stunning graphics using Unreal Engine 5, raising expectations for the highly anticipated remake.

The game is being developed by Konami's in-house team in collaboration with Virtuos, renowned for their work on Final Fantasy 10 and Nier Automata.

Though Hideo Kojima will not be part of the project, fans can still indulge in the recently launched Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 and eagerly await Vol. 2, potentially featuring Metal Gear Solid 4, Peace Walker, and The Phantom Pain.

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater has released new gameplay footage that showcases breathtakingly realistic graphics, created using the powerful Unreal Engine 5. Given the tremendous success of the original Metal Gear Solid 3, fans are eagerly anticipating whether the remake will meet their lofty expectations.

First announced in May, Metal Gear Solid Delta is a joint development project between Konami's in-house team and Virtuos, renowned for their porting expertise in games like Final Fantasy 10 and Nier Automata. This game is the centerpiece of Metal Gear Solid's recent resurgence, accompanied by two collections featuring remastered editions of beloved classics.

Gamers got a glimpse of Metal Gear Solid 3's remake during the Xbox Partner Preview. The video showcased Snake covertly maneuvering through the jungle, navigating through murky waters, and taking cover in bushes to evade enemy soldiers. The footage also showcased various local fauna, including birds and crocodiles. The overall art design of the game aims for a realistic aesthetic. Additionally, the trailer revealed that Metal Gear Solid Delta will be developed using Epic's Unreal Engine 5, which aligns with previous rumors about the game's engine.

The graphics of Metal Gear Solid Delta are impressive, but remaking a classic like this will undoubtedly be a challenging task. It's worth noting that Hideo Kojima, who has not been affiliated with Konami for several years, will not be involved in the Metal Gear Solid 3 remake.

Currently, there is no official release date for Metal Gear Solid Delta. However, fans of the franchise can still enjoy the recently released Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1, despite encountering a few technical problems. Additionally, Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 is slated for release in the near future. A recent leak suggests that Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, and Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain will be included in this collection, although official confirmation is still pending.

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is in development for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
