The Metal Gear franchise is looking to make its long-awaited comeback with the upcoming Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, and though it’s still unclear when the remake will be out, long-suffering fans of the series already have questions about what the future is going to have in store for Metal Gear beyond that. Interestingly enough, according to Konami, based on how players respond to the upcoming remake, we might be seeing plenty more of Metal Gear going forward.
Konami recently premiered a 20-minute “production hotline” program with Metal Gear series producer Noriaki Okamura in attendance. When asked about if more Metal Gear Solid games are in development in addition to Delta, Okamura said that though the development team’s focus is currently squarely on the remake, once it’s out, Konami will decide whether to develop another remake or an entirely new instalment.
“First of all, we’ll make Delta properly, and then we’ll get feedback from users who say, ‘Maybe they should make the next remake,’ or ‘Maybe (with this team) it might be ok to make a new game,'” Okamura said (translation via Twitter user @HEITAIs).
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is in development for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, with Virtuos co-developing the title alongside Konami. Currently, there’s been no official word from Konami where a release date is concerned, but PlayStation listed it as a 2024 title earlier this year.
