Staying True to the Original

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is a ground-up remake featuring enhanced visuals and gameplay for modern PC and console hardware. Despite these improvements, the storyline remains faithful to the original, with many of the original voice actors reprising their roles [GamingBolt].
