‘Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater’ Review: a Slick Remake
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater uses Unreal Engine 5 to enhance visuals while maintaining the original 2004 gameplay, including survival mechanics like injury and stamina systems.
- Konami releases Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater on August 28 for Windows PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, rebuilt in Unreal Engine 5 as a one-to-one remake.
- After distancing itself from triple-A titles, Konami opted for remakes, starting with Metal Gear Solid 3, a fan-favourite chronologically first game after parting with Hideo Kojima.

- Because it isn't on Game Pass at launch, players must buy Delta for $70 MSRP, but its preservation role might inspire more Konami revivals or new projects.
