Tokyo, Japan – The highly anticipated remake of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, titled Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater, is officially set to release in August 2025. The confirmation came through a leaked PlayStation Store listing, which surfaced just before Konami’s expected announcement. Fans of the legendary stealth-action series are already buzzing with excitement as new details continue to emerge.
According to IGN, the PlayStation Store briefly displayed an August 2025 release window before the listing was removed. This aligns with speculation from industry insiders who predicted that the game would launch in the second half of 2025. While Konami has not yet issued an official statement, the leak has given fans their first solid expectation for when they can experience the beloved classic in an all-new light.
Rolling Stone reports that Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater remains faithful to the original story, keeping the Cold War-era setting and espionage-driven narrative intact. However, the remake features a completely overhauled visual engine, taking full advantage of Unreal Engine 5 to bring Snake’s jungle survival journey to life with enhanced character models, dynamic lighting, and environmental realism.
One of the most exciting elements for longtime fans is the return of the iconic minigames from the original title. CNET confirmed that “Snake vs. Monkey”, the quirky arcade-style crossover with Ape Escape, will be included in the remake. Other features, such as improved enemy AI and an adaptive camouflage system, will modernize the classic stealth mechanics without straying from Hideo Kojima’s original vision.
The game will launch on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, with fans eagerly awaiting further official details from Konami. Given the franchise’s massive following, Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater is expected to be one of the biggest game releases of 2025, offering both nostalgic veterans and new players an immersive stealth-action experience like never before.
