Key enhancements include real-time clothing and wound damage, as well as lifelike facial animations, promising a deeper and more immersive tactical espionage experience.

Konami is giving players options on how they want to experience Snake’s mission. The game offers dual control schemes, allowing fans to choose between the classic MGS3 setup and a modernized layout inspired by Metal Gear Solid V.

With new-gen power behind it, the game aims to deliver the same heart-pounding stealth gameplay and emotional storytelling, now rebuilt for 2025.


Pre-orders are expected to go live soon, with more details about special editions and bonus content anticipated in the coming weeks.
