https://www.eurogamer.net/metal-gear-solid-remake-is-still-in-development-at-konami-rumours-suggests

A remake of the original Metal Gear Solid game is reportedly still in development at Konami.

According to the Spanish website Areajugones – which previously, and correctly, leaked God of War Regnarök's DLC existence ahead of a formal announcement – "Konami is still working on a remake of the first installment, although right now Metal Gear Solid Delta is a priority in the studio".

The website reports that the rumour comes from "multiple sources" and suggests that it will only be playable on PS5, not PS4. Similarly, there's been no mention of a PC or Xbox release, either, but as this is nowt but a rumour, all of this remains very much speculation. Given Metal Gear Solid Delta is coming to multiple platforms, though, it stands to reason that the Metal Gear Solid Remake will, too. But all we can do is wait for official confirmation.

Interestingly, the sources say that the game has been in development for several years – by what studio, we don't yet know – but as Konami is focused on Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, we probably shouldn't expect the remake of the original Metal Gear Solid game this calendar game – but as ever, take that with a pinch of salt for now.

ICYMI, it looks like both Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater and Silent Hill 2 Remake could be released this year.

That would be amazing if true! Makes you wonder where they're going with this. Will we also see an MGS 2 Remake? Is the franchise going in a different direction or are they just upgrading assets? What do you think, SW?

In gaming, original thought dies of loneliness... 😢

I'd rather Konami make something fresh... If they can. I'd take a new spin on Castlevania long before wanting to return to metal gear...

Twin Snakes 2: The Twinining

Don't care. From what Seen of the MGS3 remake as well, something visually off about it, looks soulless as **** like one of those Youtube fan videos you see.

If they are remaking MGS 3 why in the world would MGS 2 sons of liberty and MGS not get a remake

I think people are done pretending to see the emperor's invisible clothes. Pretending they liked these games more than they really did. Funny watching people act like Konami botched the remaster controls when the reality was they were always screwy and there's no fixing that without revamping the whole entire game. And I honestly doubt they'll go that far, this will likely be a half-step remake-remaster like MGS3 appears to be. I'm confident bad cotrol designs stay intact, as will those really really really boring ass boring cutscenes that did I say how boring they are and they go on forever....

MGS is boring. Gameplay sucks. Story sucks because it's boring and goes on forever...

Makes sense to do that storyline wise. Would definitely buy that if it turns out well but I have a very difficult time trusting Konami.

Remaking these games in 3D with voice acting and cutscenes would require effort. Konami doesn't do that anymore. Metal Gear Solid 3 will have the same voices acting, probably the same cinematography, the same level design.

We don't need remakes anyway. Will just have more retcons. Would rather see a sequel to MGS4, with a new protagonist and villains. But, again, Konami wouldn't do that because it would require significantly more effort.

MGS1&2 still hold up extremely well on PS1 and PS2.

Don't have faith in Konami to produce something as good.

They should replace Naked Snake with one of those japanese cyber dolls to make it complete.
