Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is a remake of the PS2 original, with updated visuals and the original voice cast back. Fans are hopeful that it will signify more remakes and possibly a full revival of the franchise.
It won’t be long until fans can step back into Big Boss’ shoes, as users on ResetEra have discovered that an official release date trailer for Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is now available on the PSN app, revealing that it will launch for PS5 on August 28, 2025.
The release date trailer is currently limited to the PSN app, which means it can’t be posted here. However, DualShockers has verified its existence and will post an official one here when it launches.
The fact that Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater has a trailer suggests an official announcement is coming soon, likely in the rumoured February 2025 Sony State of Play, where more PlayStation 5 news will be provided.
The trailer also confirmed that the Snake vs Monkey minigame will return, where the player had to hunt the apes from Ape Escape throughout the wilderness.
A lot of companies seem reticent to announce their 2025 release dates, due to wanting to avoid proximity to Grand Theft Auto 6, which is likely to destroy any competition. It’s good to see Konami locking in on a date, and that the return of Metal Gear Solid isn’t too far away.
