The announcement of Metal Gear Solid DELTA: Sneak Eater was the biggest surprise of the PlayStation Showcase held a week ago. With this announcement, in addition to the one for Metal Gear Solid Master Collection, it seems that Konami intends to return its best-known franchises to the place they deserveeither through remakes like the one announced or Silent Hill 2, or with new titles like Silent Hill F or the rest of the franchise projects that were announced at the end of last year.
For this “new” project in the Metal Gear franchise, Konami will work closely with Virtuos, a studio that has previously been associated with some works in the franchise. The Japanese company assured in an interview with IGN that the decision to take Metal Gear Solid 3 as the first remake of the franchise responded to the fact that “represents the birth of BIG BOSS (Naked Snake), which is the starting point of the Metal Gear series”. And after these statements, it is inevitable to wonder if we will see more remakes of Metal Gear Solid in the future.

Precisely, in the same interview, IGN’s colleagues asked the Konami spokesperson if we will see more Metal Gear Solid remakes in the future. When asked, they tried to answer as carefully as possible, without revealing whether or not they are currently working on a future franchise project, ensuring that “Regarding remakes of previous games in the series other than Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, We will listen to players’ demand and consider accordingly.«.

Therefore, it is clear that the ball is in the court of the players. These statements seem to make it clear that, in the event that we want to see more remakes of Metal Gear Solid, we will have to be the users who confirm that desire. But how? Very easy. Konami hopes that, in order to give birth to new projects, the sales of Metal Gear Solid DELTA will work correctly.
Although the players started a campaign through social networks to bring other franchise titles to the present, in the end the differentiating element will be the economic revenue that Konami can get out of this return of the franchise. In case this new title works properly in the market, we are convinced that the company will soon announce new remakes of Metal Gear Solid.
