Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater Ramping Up Towards Release

Fox Hunt is the New Original Multiplayer Mode Replacing Metal Gear Online

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater (MGS Delta) will introduce a new multiplayer mode, Fox Hunt, replacing the original game’s Metal Gear Online. During the recent KONAMI PRESS START livestream on June 12, Fox Hunt Director Yu Sahara shared some insights regarding the MGS Delta’s new approach to multiplayer gaming.

According to Sahara, Fox Hunt is a "completely original online multiplayer mode" that shares the same world as MGS: Delta, but offers a different gameplay experience. This mode replaces Metal Gear Online, which was released on MGS3: Subsistence for the PS2.

He explained, "We really appreciate all the longtime fans of Metal Gear Online who have always wanted to see it make a comeback, but the landscape of multiplayer games has changed a lot since MGO." Sahara said that they emphasized taking camouflage and hide-and-seek to the next level to create their new version of the multiplayer mode.

"We challenged ourselves to make something unique, that’s more than just another shootout. We’ve used that back-and-forth tension of staying hidden, or searching out the enemy, to create an online experience unique to Metal Gear," he elaborated.

Metal Gear Online (and all its subsequent versions) offered more traditional competitive multiplayer modes as it came with MGS3: Subsistence, MGS4: Guns of the Patriots, and MGS5: Phantom Pain. Sahara noted that more details will be shared in the coming days to give fans further insights into their new multiplayer mode.

Snake vs. Bomberman Confirmed Exclusively for Xbox

In February, Konami revealed that the PlayStation 5 and Steam versions of the game will have the return of "Snake vs. Monkey" mode exclusive for those platforms. Meanwhile, they teased that a similar game mode will also arrive on Xbox, albeit featuring a different character, which was hinted to be Bomberman.

This was later confirmed during MGS: Delta’s latest gameplay trailer for Xbox, as the developers revealed the "Snake vs. Bomberman" exclusive mode for the console. The video blurb reads, "Take control of Snake and face off with Bomberman in this special side mode. Blast 'em away in each stage!"

Konami aims to deliver a faithful remake of one of its most critically acclaimed titles, adding more content and modernized systems to accommodate a wider audience. Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is set to release on August 28 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
