Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater Release Date Finally Confirmed — Officially This Time

Author: Joshua Mar 04,2025

The release date for Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater was officially unveiled during Sony's State of Play 2025 presentation, confirming previous leaks. A new trailer accompanied the announcement, showcasing the game's August 28, 2025 launch.

The PlayStation Store had prematurely revealed both the date and trailer last week. State of Play provided official confirmation.

An intriguing Ape Escape collaboration was also teased, with the cryptic addition of "And More," hinting at further crossovers planned for the game. This first crossover appears to be a nod to the original Metal Gear Solid 3, which included a memorable monkey minigame.

PlayWhile boasting a new first-person perspective, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater largely remains a faithful recreation of its predecessor. IGN's preview described it as a "very shiny HD remaster," praising its visual fidelity but noting its almost unwavering adherence to the original, potentially at the expense of innovative reimagining.
