Update on Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater Fox Hunt Multiplayer Mode
Konami has recently shared exciting news regarding the upcoming multiplayer feature, Fox Hunt, for Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater. Through their official social media channels, they announced that this multiplayer mode will not support cross-play functionality across different platforms. This means that players using a PS5, Xbox Series X, or PC will only be able to engage with others on their specific system. For instance, a player on PS5 will exclusively match with fellow PS5 users, limiting the multiplayer interactions to the same console family.
Lack of Cross-Play Explanation
While the announcement clarified the multiplayer setup, it did not provide specific reasons for the absence of cross-play capabilities. Konami has only encouraged potential players of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater to understand the limitations of the multiplayer experience. As of now, there has been no additional commentary or indication that cross-play might be reconsidered in the future. Information about any potential changes might not surface for some time, especially since the Fox Hunt mode is slated for release as a post-launch update in Fall 2025.
Gameplay Insights
Despite the lack of cross-play, players can anticipate a multiplayer experience that emphasizes stealth gameplay. Participants will adopt different roles, with some players taking on the challenge of remaining hidden, while others work to accomplish specific objectives without being spotted. This dynamic adds a layer of strategy and excitement, aligning with the franchise’s storied legacy of stealth action.
Release Date and Editions
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is scheduled for release on August 28, 2025, available for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and PC via Steam. Both standard and collector’s editions will be offered, catering to different types of players and collectors alike.
