Rumors Surface on Sony and Konami Joining Hands to Bring Metal Gear Solid 3 Remake for PlayStation 5

These days, there are a few things that have become the subject of excessive discussion among gamers. One of them is the upcoming Nintendo Switch exclusive, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and the other is the much-rumored PlayStation 5 showcase.

It appears that if there’s a game coming for the PlayStation 5 in the next couple of years, it will be announced during this showcase. And that list continues to grow, as a recent rumor suggests that one more much-awaited big-budget title will be presented during this showcase.

Sony and Konami might show the Metal Gear Solid 3 remake during the upcoming PlayStation 5 showcase!

Ever since its inception, the Metal Gear Solid series has been a PlayStation exclusive. Every major game in this series first launched on a PlayStation console before releasing on other platforms at a later date. And some games, like PlayStation 3’s Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of Patriots, remain exclusive to this day.

So, it only makes sense for Konami to bring the remake of the most iconic game in the series and technically the first installment to the PlayStation 5. Yes, Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is coming to Sony’s latest console. It has been in development for the longest time and has been rumored to drop on this console for a while too. Seeing the magnitude of this title, it only makes sense for Sony to choose this huge showcase for this announcement.

There’s a twist, though. SHPESHAL NICK recently said in one of XboxEra podcasts that this game would be a launch exclusive to PlayStation 5. This means it might make its way to other consoles and even PC at a later date. This is an exciting prospect for those who have yet to get themselves a PlayStation 5.

For those unaware, Metal Gear Solid 3 is chronologically the first game in the series. It tells the story of how Naked Snake turned into Big Boss and what made him start his Soldiers Without Borders army with Kazuhira Miller.

This would be a great way for Konami to reboot the franchise; they can finally tell this story sequentially. It would all probably depend on the success of this upcoming game though, which would further depend on its announcement.
