Konami’s Metal Gear Solid 3 remake won’t just be for PlayStation 5. Following today’s PlayStation Showcase stream, Konami put out a press release that also confirmed that the new project — titled Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater — will also be coming to Xbox consoles and PC.
This is big news for Xbox and PC fans, not the least because Metal Gear Solid has historically had strong ties to Sony. Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater was initially confirmed for PlayStation 5 during today’s PlayStation Showcase, with confirmation that it would be coming to other platforms revealed later.
First revealed in a CG trailer during the PlayStation Showcase, Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater (pronounced “Metal Gear Solid Delta”) is the first proper Metal Gear Solid game since Hideo Kojima departed Konami following the release of Metal Gear Solid 5. Konami has since released a handful of in-game screenshots revealing the in-game graphics.
There is precedent for Metal Gear Solid being on Steam — Metal Gear Solid 5 released on the platform alongside console back in 2015. Fans used the opportunity to make numerous mods, such as replacing Snake with Keanu Reeves.
Whatever platform it’s experienced on, Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater promises to be a faithful retelling of the original game, including implementing the original voice acting featuring David Hayter.
Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater does not yet have a release date, but it’s expected to be out in 2024. Check out our full recap of everything announced at today’s PlayStation Showcase.
