As the release of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater approaches in August, Konami has unveiled the stealth game's opening movie. This cinematic introduction will feel instantly familiar to fans of the original, with only slight deviations. From the iconic newspapers appearing on screen to the James Bond-esque theme song reprised by Cynthia Harrell, the essence of the classic remains intact.
The video offers tantalizing glimpses of the game, showcasing moments like Snake performing an Olympic-worthy backward leap off a waterfall and indulging in his namesake by eating a snake. These scenes, while out of context, promise the thrilling gameplay that fans expect.
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is a remake of Konami's beloved 2004 action espionage game, originally titled Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. The publisher has confirmed the game's release date as August 28 and announced the return of the popular Snake vs. Monkey minigame. Additionally, it will retain the suggestive and sexual content from the original, including the Peep Demo Theatre, as indicated by its age rating.
In our Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater preview, IGN described the game as "more like a very shiny HD remaster than the elegant remake it could have been." This assessment points to the game's strong adherence to the original, featuring a new first-person perspective for Snake. While it's a beautiful nostalgia trip, it remains almost faithful to a fault. The original Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater received an impressive score of 9.6 from us, highlighting its enduring appeal.
