Not everyone likes Metal Gear Solid 3 Remake, but Konami wants to charm the fans. And for this he did not hesitate to raise veterans of the franchise.
Metal Gear Solid 3 Remake has been split since its announcement. There are clearly two schools within the license’s fans. Those who are only interested in the franchise and are very excited that it’s returning in the form of a remake (and a compilation of remasters). And there are those fans who, more so than MGS, are particularly fans of Hideo Kojima’s work when it’s not just about the person. And those players, in turn, don’t take the return of the license very well. Not even at all.
To be honest, even some of our industry figures weren’t thrilled with the news, such as Geoff Keighley, Kojima’s good friend Mr. World Premiere. He actually sent Konami a small tweet when the announcement was made Metal Gear Solid 3 Remake was created in the PlayStation Showcase. Yes, for many, what happened between the publisher and the famous developer is still not over. But Konami wants to do everything right with its remake and proves it again.
Konami gives fans and dissatisfied foot
While opinions are gradually softening around the remake and some visual elements are appearing, important information has only just been confirmed and may well make people happy or even attract some reluctant and unconditional fans of the series. Yes, Konami is doing a remake, but it wants to do it right. It is also for this reason that the company decided to bring back the original cast of voices for this new piece Metal Gear Solid 3 Remake. David Hayter (Snake), Lori Alan (The Boss) and Jim Piddock (Major Zero) will be there again.
A closely watched remake
That should reassure some fans…or maybe not. Difficult to say whether this remake will remain faithful or not, whether the Kojima touch will always be implemented well or whether new ideas will come to embellish the whole. We will have to wait to see more and above all to hold the beast in our hands. At present, Metal Gear Solid 3 Remake has no release date. However, we do know that the game will be available on PS5, Xbox Series and PC and that it will be released some time after Metal Gear Solid Collection Vol 1, which is planned for this fall. Meanwhile, the game is gradually unveiling itself through the presentation of its new graphics.
And you, does this remake heat you up?
