Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater rebuilds Metal Gear Solid 3 using Unreal Engine 5 with overhauled visuals, a new over-the-shoulder camera, and assorted gameplay changes. The remake aims to preserve the original game's structure and tone, leaving many core mechanics and beats intact while adding modernizations that sometimes feel tacked on. The updated presentation reduces some of the original's distinctive sepia-tinged spy-thriller aesthetic. The game still follows Naked Snake in 1964 on a mission to sabotage the Shagohod amid Cold War paranoia, confront The Cobras, and face his mentor The Boss. The remake raises questions about the tradeoffs between fidelity and meaningful modernization.
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is a full-blown remake of 2004's Metal Gear Solid 3, completely rebuilding the game using the software Unreal Engine 5. This means a completely overhauled visual style, a new over-the-shoulder gameplay mode, and a mix of other changes. But Delta falls into that bizarre middle ground as a remake, stretching the definition of the word. It's a game singularly focused on "preserving" the experience of the original, and because of that, a lot of the additions feel like afterthoughts.
It's essentially a prequel to the other games. Set in 1964, you follow the exploits of FOX operative Naked Snake, who embarks on a mission to sabotage a Soviet nuclear weapon called the Shagohod, amidst rising tensions of the Cold War. Along the way, Snake has to confront a band of soldiers with supernatural powers known as The Cobras, and his former mentor, The Boss.
