Reviving a Legend: The Future of Metal Gear Solid

The Metal Gear Solid series has been a staple of the gaming world for decades, but since the departure of creator Hideo Kojima, Konami has struggled to revive the franchise. However, with the release of Metal Gear Solid: The Master Collection and the upcoming remake of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, titled Metal Gear Solid Delta, it seems that Konami is finally taking steps in the right direction.

In a recent video, producer Noriaki Okamura addressed the issues with The Master Collection, apologizing for the bugs and playability issues that plagued the game. “We’re still continuing to update and improve the game to address these issues,” Okamura promised, “we want everyone to still be enjoying Metal Gear and this compilation even 10, 20 years from now, so we hope everyone will give us a little more time to get it there.”

Okamura’s commitment to the series is evident, and his passion for the game shines through in his words. “When I look at it, I think of the history of Metal Gear as a lot like the history of all video games,” he said, “and the Master Collection as a kind of experience retracing that history. When I consider it that way, I do think it’s meaningful to present these titles the same way they were, and not go out of the way just to change a lot of things.”

The decision to remake Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is an interesting one, but it makes sense given the game’s importance in the series. As Okamura put it, “Metal Gear is a whole epic saga,” and introducing new players to the series through a remake of one of its most beloved entries is a smart move.

“We want the players to be able to judge for themselves whether this new team is right for the job of keeping Metal Gear going,” Okamura said, “so please, keep watching, and keep us honest.”

It’s clear that Okamura and the team at Konami are dedicated to reviving the Metal Gear Solid series, and with the release of Metal Gear Solid Delta on the horizon, fans of the series have a lot to look forward to.
