IGN had the chance to speak with the team behind the Metal Gear Solid 3 remake, and they discussed whether Hideo Kojima or Yoji Shinkawa had any involvement in the project, if there will be more remakes from the Metal Gear series, and more.
Metal Gear Solid Delta is going to have to overcome the same obstacles that helped sink the franchise's last installment, Metal Gear Survive.
"In addition, the game will likely lack the bizarre charm, humor, and depth that can only be found in games that Kojima himself worked on."
If its a remake that stays loyal to the source material how is this an issue?
Kojima cultists are wacky
If they change the script that’s where they would f up big time. They would be stupid to do that
If Konami decides to develop more Metal Gear Solid Delta remakes the franchise would have an obvious direction to go in after Snake Eater.

With a remake of Metal Gear Solid 3 on the horizon, game developers have a chance to tie in one of the series' biggest narrative reveals.
Just remake the game, don't add anything I don't trust Konami to change anything and pull it off properly at the same time.
So no thanks :>
God no, the studio in charge of this has made 2 games so far both of which were awful. I dont want these people to be rewriting anything. Just give us better visuals/controls and thats it.
Giant snakes hiding in caves, this was the scariest part of the game, think I’ll pass on this one bc I can’t take that jump scare again l. 100 serious
Not a good idea, and here's why:
- This is a medium budget remake, its going to be as close to 1:1 as possible from the PS2 game. This isn't a re-imagining like FF7 or RE 2 / 3 / 4. This is cheap-ass Konami, not actually willing to add much budget to their games, but only willing to go so far as to profit off nostalgia and not much more.
- The game is using the PS2-era voice acting, so adding new dialog or lore would feel out of place with the old recordings from 2003 - 2004.
- Changing the cut-scenes and the lore by adding new characters who don't belong in the background is absurd.
- This doesn't even make sense for a forward-progressing linear game. Only a few locations do you return to, you're not going to see the clean-up crew for most of the game anyway.
- Its a bad idea, the clean-up crew most likely arrived AFTER the mission was complete (and Snake flew away on the MIG), they're not actually tailing Snake throughout the entire freakin' mission. That's just a stupid concept all around.
I'm not surprised. Kojima doesn't want anything to do with Konami anymore
lets see what happens, honestly Im very skeptical about Konami handling the project and others like Silen Hill, still I hope it turns out great game experiences.
No kojima, no buy. Unless it’s a port of 4
"We then asked why the team chose to start with Metal Gear Solid 3 as opposed to the first Metal Gear Solid, and it all seemed to boil down to the fact that this third entry is actually the spark of the larger Metal Gear tale"
They actually mean the work was 60% done by kojimas old team for the plachinco machine but we now are making it run on next gen systems. Do you start from scratch or start with alot of stuff finished.
We could have had this remake 6yrs ago :(
