Earlier this summer, Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima laughed when asked if he would play the remake of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, before flatly replying, “No, I won’t.” Regardless, the creative team behind Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is hopeful that their former colleague will get a chance to see that the remake was created with great reverence and respect for the original.
“We are not sure what [Kojima] would want to do, but we want to deliver this game whilst being very respectful of all the people that we previously worked with,” said MGS Delta producer Noriaki Okamura during an interview with Inverse. “We would love for [Kojima] to see it too.”
