The PlayStation Store has updated to reveal that Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater will launch on August 28, 2025.
Its announcement has seemingly been published early on the PlayStation Store ahead of the heavily rumoured State of Play next week, but the update reveals the games release date with a new gameplay trailer.
In a surprising announcement, the trailer also features an Ape Escape tease at the end, too, which according to back-end information will be a gamemode coming to the game.
The game information reads,
“The core experience of the original, evolved and more immersive than ever.
A remake of the 2004 game METAL GEAR SOLID 3: SNAKE EATER, with the same gripping story and engrossing world, now with all new graphics and 3D audio that enhance the jungle atmosphere. Get ready for the ultimate survival stealth action experience.
Everything you love, and more
The story, characters, voice acting, gameplay, and music that made the original a sensation return, remade for modern consoles. This evolutionary leap breathes new life into every cutscene, and rebuilds every corner of the world.
Authentic to life portrayals
The battle damage system has been upgraded, with the wear and tear of Snake’s clothes, as well as bruises and bullet wounds on his body, reflected in real time. Injuries will leave their mark on Snake’s body permanently, telling a story of each player’s unique journey through the game.
Deeply immersive experiences
Players can elect for a newly added, more modern control style. These intuitive controls let you focus entirely on the game, and the immersive thrills of the survival stealth experience. You can also choose to play with a classic control style that more closely recreates the feel of the original game.
Additional Game Modes
・SNAKE VS MONKEY
In this mode, you’ll play as Snake, and round up all the escaped apes running amok in each stage!
And more to come…
