In what seems like an accidental leak on the PlayStation Store, the release date for Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater might have been revealed for this year.
In what seems like an unfortunate accident, the release date for the upcoming Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater may have been leaked. Earlier today, IGN spotted a change to the PlayStation store page’s release date. Previously, the release date had said 2024, which of course needed some updating. The mistake is fixed now, but it did not escape notice. The reported leak seems to give the new Metal Gear remake a release date of August 28th, 2025.
With a rumored PlayStation State of Play presentation scheduled for next week, it would make sense to have heard some news about the upcoming Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater during that showcase. If this leak proves to be correct, it could mean we will be getting an official release date sooner rather than later. Though, it’s important to keep in mind that while this did appear on the PlayStation store, this was not an official announcement. The actual release date for Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater could change.
Alongside this release date leak, a trailer for the game also appears to have been temporarily posted to the PlayStation App version of the store page. The trailer has of course been removed, but not before some details were noticed. Of particular interest was an apparent Ape Escape collaboration, which could be a reference to the minigame from the original Metal Gear Solid 3 where Snake would have to hunt down and neutralize monkeys. Ever since Game of the Year winner Astro Bot included an Ape Escape level, fans have become nostalgic for the old PlayStation series.
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is an upcoming remake of the original Metal Gear Solid 3. The remake will have two optional gameplay styles that reportedly affect the difficulty of the gameplay, essentially providing two ways to experience the game. Back in 2023, the developers answered many questions in an interview, but it has been some time since fans heard any news about the upcoming remake. If there is a State of Play next week, we might learn more about this supposed release date, but otherwise, we will have to continue to be patient.
