As the eagerly anticipated release of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater approaches on August 28, Konami has unveiled the stealth game's opening movie. Fans of the original will find the new opening instantly recognizable, despite some subtle changes. From the iconic newspaper sequence to the classic James Bond-esque theme song, reprised by the original singer Cynthia Harrell, the essence of the original game is preserved.
The video offers glimpses of several key moments from the game, including an impressive scene of Snake performing a backwards leap off a waterfall like an Olympic diver, and the memorable scene of Snake consuming a snake—true to the game's title. These teasers, while out of context, are sure to excite fans.
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is a meticulously crafted remake of Konami's 2004 action espionage classic, originally known simply as Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. Konami has confirmed that the game will launch on August 28 and will feature the return of the beloved Snake vs. Monkey minigame. Additionally, the remake will retain the suggestive and sexual content from the original, including the Peep Demo Theatre, as noted in recent age ratings.
In our Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater preview, IGN remarked that the game "seems more like a very shiny HD remaster than the elegant remake it could have been." Despite this, the game's beauty and nostalgic value were praised, though it remains almost faithfully close to the original. The original Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater received an outstanding score of 9.6 from IGN, a testament to its enduring quality and appeal.
