Snake Eater is a faithful remake that is too afraid of its own legacy to take any risks.” With series visionary and creator Hideo Kojima out of the picture, Konami chose the route of a shot-for-shot remake with almost no creative liberties.

Beyond the story, the well-loved minigame "Snake vs. Monkey" makes a return. Delta also boasts a nice suite of options, too, including some unexpected notables such as the ability to customize the user interface (UI) and a handful of subtitle choices, too.

It’s a wild and imaginative juxtaposition that makes “Metal Gear” stand out amongst its other stealth game contemporaries. For anyone who’s played “ Death Stranding ” and its sequel, you can see where director Hideo Kojima’s knack for wacky names and abilities manifested when he created the “Metal Gear” series.
