The “new” Konami seems touched by grace: managed to recover its two most emblematic sagas, Metal Gear Solid and Silent Hill.
In the case of the spy franchise, we first had the collection Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1; but the megaton arrived with Deltathe impressive remake of MGS 3.
The company made it clear that there will be new episodes of the saga; and now it is your producer who dare to venture the next game in “go through workshops”.
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is the remake of the video game Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater developed and published by Konami for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and PC.
Noriaki Okamura Opens the Door to a Metal Gear Solid 4 Remake
Metal Gear Solid Delta producer Noriaki Okamura suggested on Real Sound that I would like to do a remake of the fourth part of the saga.
“It would be a great challenge! The hardware of the time required a unique design for 3D performance. For this reason, MGS 4 had a very unusual code.”.
As unusual as the game itself, only available on PS3. Until a few years ago, you could play games via streaming with PS Plusbut there were no doors.
The complexity of PS3 hardware limited these optionsbut the fourth installment will be part of Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 (at least, in theory).
Another factor against this is that Not the most popular delivery ever. In the case of making a remake, Metal Gear Solid, its sequel or even the MSX games could be stronger candidates.
When it comes to specifying what happens next for his team, Okamura recognizes that “We haven’t decided yet whether it could be a remake or something completely new”.
The producer explains that They do not plan to apply the same MGS Delta methodology in future gamesbut to approach different approaches for each.
“Metal Gear is the history of video games, from pixel art to cinematic graphics. For that reason, the way to approach each title is different”.
But if one thing is clear to Okamura, it’s that they want to reach more players, and Delta’s success is the impetus for that: “We want to take advantage of this moment of popularity and resurgence”.
With a little luck, In 2026 we will have news about the next Metal Gear Solid; be it a remake of MGS 4 or the return of any of its other iconic installments.
