Metal Gear Solid Delta Faces Difficulty Boost After Easy Camera

Oct 03, 2024 4:19 PM

Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater is a remake of the classic Metal Gear Solid 3, introducing a modern third-person gameplay mode alongside a classic fixed camera perspective. Due to the ease of gameplay with this new mode, Konami increased the difficulty of the game. Creative producer Yuji Korekado explained that the New Style mode allows players to move while aiming, which made the original game's shooting mechanics much simpler and necessitated a balance adjustment between the two modes. The upcoming game, scheduled for release on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, and PC in 2024, maintains much of the original game's charm while modernizing the experience without losing its nostalgic roots.

What new gameplay modes are featured in Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater?

Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater features two gameplay modes: Legacy Style, which replicates the original's fixed perspective, and New Style, which introduces a modern third-person view, allowing players to move while shooting.

Metal Gear Solid 3, originally released in 2004, is celebrated for its engaging story and innovative gameplay mechanics, blending stealth action and survival elements. The remake aims to preserve these core attributes while appealing to both long-time fans and newcomers, providing enhanced graphics and updated controls that reflect contemporary gaming standards.
