According to Spanish gaming site Areajugones, which was the source of the original Metal Gear Solid remake rumors and has accurately leaked a variety of PlayStation-related info in the past, an announcement is still on the way. Per Areajugones’ source, the MGS announcement will come sometime before May 2023, with a late-winter February or March announcement being most likely. “The same source that gave us this information reiterates that the [Metal Gear Solid remake] announcement would be made in the future and not necessarily at The Game Awards. The Metal Gear Solid remake announcement should take place before May 2023, [and sounds] very strong [for] the first months of the year, especially February-March.” Various rumors regarding Hideo Kojima’s stealth series have been circulating for a while, including that Metal Gear Solid 3 is also getting a remake. Whether all these rumors are true and how they might connect remains to be seen, so take this all with a grain of salt for now, but recall, many seemingly conflicting Silent Hill rumors made the rounds for years, before Konami announced the series was getting a whole slate of new games. Things being confusing doesn’t necessarily mean these rumors are untrue – Konami works in mysterious ways. It should also be mentioned that it’s rumored Sony will be unveiling some major new third-party PlayStation content soon. The Metal Gear Solid remake is said to be a PS5 exclusive, so perhaps one of these Sony announcements will be the Metal Gear Solid remake. Fingers crossed.
