Konami has finally confirmed the long-awaited Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater launches for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on August 28, and preorders for the anticipated remake are now live. The game will be available in multiple versions including a special day-one launch version, digital editions, and a massive physical collector’s edition. Each version includes a selection of bonus content, and fans who are eager to play as soon as possible may want to check out the Digital Deluxe edition that is offering 48-hour early access to the full game starting August 26.
Considering the original Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is often cited as one of the greatest games of all time and a highlight of the Metal Gear franchise, it’s nice to see Konami going all-out for the remake’s release. However, preorders for the collector’s edition have already sold out at Best Buy, Amazon, and GameStop. If you see it in stock, we’d recommend snagging your copy as soon as possible.

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is a remake of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, which originally launched on PS2 back in 2004. Largely considered one of the best games in the series Metal Gear Solid 3 takes the story back to the Cold War to show the origins of the franchise’s winding political mythos. Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater retains the dialog, cutscenes, and level layouts of the original game, and updates it all with new visuals in the Unreal 5 engine, and overhauled gameplay mechanics that let players choose between classic and modern control options.
