After the collapse of the relationship between Hideo Kojima and Konami, the failure of Metal Gear Survive and a period of silence, Metal Gear Solid returned with a collection and a remake of the third installment that is still in development. The expectation of fans at this moment is that some of the titles in the saga will also undergo this treatment, but what do those responsible for the IP think? The producer of the franchise spoke about it.
Konami does not close the door to more remakes of Metal Gear Solid
During an interview with Famitsu (via “Genki” on X) Noriaki Okamura, producer of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eaterspoke about the possibility that the next installments of the franchise will also be remakes of the first games, metal gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snakeas well as Metal Gear Solid from 1998. At the beginning, the creative did not close the door on this possibility, but made it clear that if approved it would be a very different process than the one carried out with the remake that is on the horizon because in this case it is a very well drawn line where There will only be improvements, adjustments and some freedom given the depth of the title which, canonically, is the first in Big Boss history.
In this regard, Noriaki Okamura pointed out that making remakes of MSX and PlayStation games would involve the creation of new content while trying not to break with the essence of the original games. It should be remembered that, strictly speaking, much of the structure, design and mechanics of Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake were used in Metal Gear SolidIn fact, fans consider that it is the same game with differences, but in essence there is no great distance between both works.
On the other hand, the producer mentioned that there are future plans to Metal Gear Solid because they know that the creatives will not be at Konami forever and they want to ensure that the IP remains alive decades later: “before everyone who was involved in the original games leaves, we need to create a path to preserve the series metal gear for 10 or 50 years in the future. “I think this is something we have to do.”
What do you think about a remake of the 2 games of metal gear from MSX and one of Metal Gear Solid?
