Rumours of a Metal Gear Solid 3 remake have been around for a while, but recent days have seen them flaring up again. Leaks have claimed that the remake is going to be announced soon, and that it will be exclusive to the PS5, similar to the Silent Hill 2 remake, with Konami allegedly having struck exclusivity deals with Sony for upcoming Metal Gear, Silent Hill, and Castlevania games.
However, according to journalist Jez Corden, specifically where Metal Gear Solid 3 is concerned, an Xbox release might not be completely out of the question. Speaking recently on the Xbox Two podcast, Corden said that based on what he had heard, though Konami has indeed struck “some sort of” a deal with Sony, Metal Gear Solid 3 might not be a “full” PS5 exclusive. As per Corden, the deal could potentially involve timed exclusivity, exclusive DLC, or marketing rights, and the game might still end up coming to Xbox consoles down the line.
As for when the remake will be announced, it’s been claimed that Konami is set to unveil it at the rumoured upcoming PlayStation Showcase, which is allegedly scheduled for the week of May 25.
