Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater Remake Announced [Game Informer]

The rumors were true. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is getting remade for PlayStation 5. 

A cinematic teaser showcased a jungle filled with dangerous animals vying for dominance, with Naked Snake emerging from the depth of a bog to show off his remade look. Originally released in 2004, the title is a 1970s-era prequel to the Metal Gear series that tells the origin story of Big Boss and lays the groundwork for the entire Metal Gear fiction.

Interestingly, the “3” in the logo has been replaced with a triangle, perhaps representing a tree. That could signify that Konami is ditching the number to likely avoid scaring away newcomers who may think they’re jumping into the middle of a series rather than the beginning of it. 

Unfortunately, we don’t get to see gameplay, and the title doesn’t have a release window, but the first three Metal Gear Solid games are also being bundled in a collection heading to PlayStation 5 this fall. Check out the trailer below.
