Metallic Gear Strong Delta: Snake Eater now seemingly has a launch date, because of a trailer that is allegedly leaked by way of the PlayStation Retailer. It options all the same old MGSy stuff you’d anticipate, and a well-known ape smacking its personal arse.
So we will get to the bum slapping good and swiftly, I will begin with the date. In line with the tip of the trailer, it is August 28, 2025, with the sport’s PlayStation Retailer web page wanting prefer it was briefly up to date to mirror this, earlier than being reverted again to simply saying 2025.
The trailer, which was noticed by ResetEra customers, exhibits precisely the type of stealthy, actiony stuff you may be aware of from the orginial MGS 3: Snake Eater, however with a contemporary coat of most likely camouflage paint.
Now, the ending. All of a sidden the ape from Ape Escape pops up from behind a log, earlier than operating about and stopping to offer its personal tush a rattling good hiding. We do not kink disgrace right here at VG247, so congratuations to the ape for being so assured about expressing its sexuality on the massive stage that could be a trailer for an MGS recreation. We’re clapping our cheeks in recognition.
Why’s this bum slapping occured, except for to fulfil some monkey’s masochistic tendencies, you may ask. Properly, presulably the Snake vs. Monkey MGS/Ape Escape crossover mini-game from the PS2 variations of the unique MGS 3 is making a comeback in Delta: Snake Eater, and it is a tease for that.
It’d actually be a enjoyable factor to not have been discarded as a little bit of historical past that some company doctrine or different rendered too tough or bizarre to re-create for a contemporary remaster that might be performed by individuals who’ve not touched the unique on that console, along with the legions of long-time snakey bois.
In any case, silly attractive Ocelot is for everybody.
