Earlier this summer, Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima laughed when asked if he would play the remake of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, before flatly replying, “No, I won’t.” Regardless, the creative team behind Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is hopeful that their former colleague will get a chance to see that the remake was created with great reverence and respect for the original.
“We are not sure what [Kojima] would want to do, but we want to deliver this game whilst being very respectful of all the people that we previously worked with,” said MGS Delta producer Noriaki Okamura during an interview with Inverse. “We would love for [Kojima] to see it too.”
Kojima parted ways with Konami in 2015 after spending decades as one of the top creative minds in the company. Since that time, Kojima has launched his own company and released two Death Stranding games. Okamura has openly shared his admiration for Kojima and expressed his desire to work with him again on MGS. However, Kojima has his own MGS-like game called Physint, which may still be a few years away. The director recently confirmed that Physint is still in a conceptual phase.
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is out today on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC. Although it won’t be ready at launch, Konami is adding a new online multiplayer mode called Fox Hunt this fall. Unfortunately, it won’t support cross-play. The new version of the game was very positively received in GameSpot’s review of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater.
