What is METAL GEAR SOLID Δ: SNAKE EATER?

A full, enhanced remake of the 2004 game METAL GEAR SOLID 3: SNAKE EATER.

METAL GEAR SOLID Δ: SNAKE EATER takes you right to the start of the Metal Gear Saga, telling the thrilling and unpredictable origin story of legendary soldier Big Boss.

Combine stealth, camouflage technology, survival skills and mastery of close-quarters combat (CQC) to infiltrate the enemy and stop top-secret weapons from triggering a full-scale nuclear conflict.

Built entirely in Unreal Engine 5, the remake depicts the natural environments and iconic characters of the original game in incredible new detail. A new, optional modern control style offers a more intuitive and contemporary survival stealth experience that's suited to players experiencing the world of Tactical Espionage Action for the first time.

Key features

Why you should play METAL GEAR SOLID Δ: SNAKE EATER

A battle of ideologies

Explore an alternate history as Snake infiltrates Soviet territory during the peak of the Cold War in the 1960s. In this tale of loyalty, betrayal and sacrifice, Snake will battle elite soldiers from the Russian military and members of the superhuman Cobra Unit.

A battle of instincts

Outsmart enemies with camouflage and gadgets, or take them down using close-quarters combat. Stalk your targets and interrogate them for intel. Use your survival instincts to hunt and gather flora and fauna that will maintain Snake's stamina and heal his injuries.

A battle of wits

Pit yourself against an environment where you can use traps to catch enemies and prey alike — but stay aware of the threats lurking in the shadows and avoid making noises that will alert soldiers.

A battle of apes?!

All the bonus and hidden elements of METAL GEAR SOLID 3: SNAKE EATER return in enhanced form. Round up all the apes in Snake Vs Monkey, watch classic and all-new alternative versions of cinematics in Secret Theatre and battle through Snake's nightmare in the all-action GUY SAVAGE Δ.

METAL GEAR SOLID Δ: SNAKE EATER characters

An iconic cast

Meet the heroes and villains that all play a pivotal part in the very start of the Metal Gear Saga.

Naked Snake

The final apprentice of The Boss, he learned everything from her: combat, demolition and intelligence gathering, and even developed close quarters combat (CQC) with her. Given the task of rescuing the engineer Sokolov during the CIA's Virtuous Mission, he infiltrates Soviet territory alone in the world's first HALO jump.

Eva

A KGB agent who handles a motorcycle as well as she handles a gun. She offers support to Snake.

The Boss

A legendary hero who formed the Cobra Unit during World War II. Her unit's numerous accomplishments led the Allied powers to victory. After the war, the Cobras were disbanded, and she spent 10 years with Snake as his mentor. The Boss re-enters Snake's life to offer him support during the Virtuous Mission.

Volgin

A GRU colonel known in the West by the codename "Thunderbolt". A sadist with a penchant for torture, his body flows with ultra-high voltage electricity, which he unleashes in his attacks.

Ocelot

Commander of the GRU's elite Ocelot Unit. A quick draw who is so skilled with a gun he can ricochet bullets off objects to strike his targets. Challenging Snake multiple times, he ends up becoming heavily influenced by him.

Sokolov

The leading weapons developer in the East. Once a rocket engineer, Sokolov even contributed to the success of the first manned spaceflight, which was carried out by the Soviet Union. Though he had hoped to defect to the West, he was returned to the Soviet Union as part of a secret agreement to end the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Zero

Born in England, Zero's real name is David Oh. He is a major and the commander of the CIA special forces unit FOX and once served with The Boss in the UK's Special Air Service (SAS). Zero is the one in charge of both the Virtuous Mission and Operation Snake Eater.

Para-Medic

A member of the CIA special forces unit FOX. Qualified as a doctor, she manages Snake's physical condition and records his mission progress. In addition to giving medical advice over the radio, she enjoys talking about her favourite movies when recording Snake's progress.

Sigint

A member of the CIA special forces unit FOX. An engineer well-versed in various military technologies, Sigint's codename comes from "signals intelligence", a type of intelligence gathering performed by intercepting signals. Sigint even developed some of Snake's weapons and equipment himself and he discusses their capabilities and particulars over the radio.
