Konami Announces METAL GEAR SOLID 3 Remake and 3-Game Collection

Konami recently made two huge announcements regarding the Metal Gear Solid franchise. First, they announced a remake of the popular game Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater called Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater (or Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater). This title is said to be “a faithful remake” of the 2004 game that launched on the PS2 and allowed fans to experience Big Boss’ origin story. What’s more is that Metal Gear Solid Delta will feature the original voice actors as well as “features of combat survival in harsh environments evolved with unprecedented graphics and immersive sound.” This is very exciting and fans can look forward to enjoying the game in the future on PC (via Steam), PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.

The other Metal Gear Solid news is the upcoming release of the Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1. This collection features the first three titles in the Metal Gear series with Metal Gear Solid 2 and Metal Gear Solid 3 being the HD Collection versions. This should be a great way to introduce new fans to the franchise and prepare them for Metal Gear Solid Delta as well as a fantastic way for older fans to get back into the swing of things before the remake launches. Master Collection Vol. 1 will launch this fall and contain the following:

The development team shared the following message about both titles:
