The jungle classic back in HD glory—beautiful to look at, though the framerate sometimes sneaks slower than Snake in a cardboard box. The revamped controls are a lifesaver, and while it keeps every quirk of the original, that’s part of its charm. A must-play for veterans and first-time operatives alike.

As a longtime fan of the Metal Gear series, I had high hopes for METAL GEAR SOLID Δ: SNAKE EATER Tactical Edition—and I'm thrilled to say it absolutely delivers. This remake is not just a nostalgia trip; it's a masterful modernization of one of the greatest stealth-action games of all time.
From the moment the game boots up on the PS5, it's clear how much care and detail went into this edition. The upgraded visuals are stunning—lush jungle environments feel alive, and character models are incredibly detailed without losing the charm of the original designs. The lighting and weather effects truly showcase what the PlayStation 5 can do.
Gameplay-wise, it's everything fans remember, but smoother. The updated controls are intuitive, responsive, and much more accessible for modern players without compromising the tactical stealth elements that made the original a classic. It’s a perfect blend of old-school challenge and new-school polish.
The Tactical Edition is also packed with extras that fans will appreciate. Whether it’s the behind-the-scenes content, the enhanced camouflage system, or additional items that cater to both newcomers and veterans, it feels like a complete package that respects its legacy while pushing it forward.
And of course, the story remains as gripping and emotional as ever. Big Boss’s origin is told with the same depth and gravitas, now enhanced by better voice clarity and cinematic presentation.
Final Verdict:
If you're a fan of stealth, cinematic storytelling, or just want to experience one of gaming’s most iconic titles in the best way possible, METAL GEAR SOLID Δ: SNAKE EATER Tactical Edition is a must-buy. Konami and the developers have done an outstanding job honoring Hideo Kojima’s vision while bringing it into the modern era.

Metal Gear Solid Δ: A Legend Reborn for the Fans

Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater is everything I wanted as a longtime fan—it’s like stepping back into one of my favorite games ever, but seeing it with fresh eyes. The Unreal Engine 5 upgrade makes the jungle feel alive in a way I never imagined back in 2004, and hearing that iconic “Snake Eater” theme again (with the same vocalist!) gave me chills. What I love most is that they didn’t mess with the heart of it—Snake’s story, the characters, the emotions—they’re all exactly as I remember, just sharper and more immersive. Sure, a few of the old-school mechanics show their age, but honestly, I wouldn’t trade that authenticity for anything. For me, Delta isn’t just a remake—it’s a love letter to fans, and playing it feels like reconnecting with an old friend I never stopped caring about.

Updated gameplay and graphics to a story that has aged well. Play this game!
-1 star because the price is so high for such a short game. You can finish it in about 10-15 hours. It has great replayability but I've bought this game like 5 times now? I think the graphic overhaul and the fact that they brought back some of the voice actors to rerecord some UI functions along with updated gameplay to match something similar to mgs5 makes it more worth it.
Tactical edition comes with a bunch of dlc outfits which are really fun. I recommend the sneaking suit!

Played this back in the PS2 days. Absolutely amazing. It still holds up today on the PS2. The remake is a dream come true. I never though I would play this again on a PS5 Pro over 20 years later. The graphics are incredible and the gameplay is amazing. 10/10 a classic masterpiece!

MGS3 Delta isn’t a true remake. It’s more of a high quality remaster almost like the Oblivion remaster. Konami stayed true to the original game simply because you can’t top the performance of the previous voice actors and director. And new voice acting costs more money. So nothing changed about the game except looks and simple changes to gameplay that are mostly already in the HD remaster version.
Nevertheless, it’s such an iconic game that playing it with its new look is still a treasure.

The graphics look phenomenal on the PS5. With an option for either classic MGS controls or a new control scheme plus the return of the original voices, this is what we want from a remaster!

I got the orginal one on ps2 for christmas 2004. I remember thinking the graphics were amazing then and it wasnt gonna get anybetter than this. My younger self would freakout if they saw what we have now. Complete nostalgia bomb. I enjoyed every minute playing the remake. I also realized i didnt understand a lot of the story when i was a kid wathcing every single cutscene all the way through now. Simply amazing. I hoped they have more remakes lined up.
