Not much is known about the project at this time, except that Konami is aiming for it to be a “faithful remake” that reproduces the original’s narrative and game design while injecting new elements. There’s no release window at this time.

Also confirmed was the Metal Gear Solid Master Collection: Vol. 1, which includes the classic versions Metal Gear Solid, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater in one collection compatible with multiple modern platforms. This bundle is coming to players in Autumn 2023.

Now, players will be able to experience the original trilogy all over again, at least until Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater is officially in our hands.
