Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater Release Date Seemingly Leaks Via GameStop
Oops.
It seems like we have a release date for Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, if a recent X/Twitter post from GameStop is to be believed.
This afternoon, the retailer posted the trailer and pre-order link to Snake Eater, saying the MGS3 remake will arrive on November 17. The post, which you can also see a screenshot of below, is still live as of press time.

As some have pointed out, though, that November 17 date is a bit of an odd one, as if it's indeed November 17, 2024, it'll release on a Sunday. On the other hand, it would be fitting, considering it would mark exactly 20 years after the original Metal Gear Solid 3 released. It's in line, too, with a previously announced release window, as PlayStation had it listed as a 2024 game in a trailer at the beginning of this year.
IGN has reached out to Konami for comment.
Metal Gear Solid Delta was one of the many games to get a spotlight at yesterday's Xbox Showcase but, much to the disappointment of fans, a release date was not revealed with the new trailer then. We first learned about Metal Gear Solid Delta in May 2023.
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is said to be a faithful remake of MGS3, so much so that Konami isn't even planning on recording new voice lines for it. Despite that, the Delta symbol in the name of the remake (stylized as Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater) is meant to highlight "'change' or 'difference' without changing structure," Konami previously explained.
