In the run up to Sony's big PlayStation Showcase this week, there have been lots of rumours about who and what might show up during the event. Konami has been at the top of those rumour lists following its recent Silent Hill announcements, although it looks like one of the company's other big properties won't be PlayStation exclusive after all.
As per Insider Gaming, the much-rumoured Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater remake will be coming to Xbox after all. According to the outlet's sources, Konami's upcoming remake will launch on Xbox Series X|S and Steam, as well as PlayStation 5.
Even though the game is supposedly multiplatform, the report does say that Konami will reveal the project at the PlayStation Showcase on May 24th. This week's reveal is expected to take the form of a 'teaser' reveal rather than a full gameplay blowout.
If this report is accurate, this could be a pretty big win for Xbox fans. With Konami's Silent Hill 2 remake being PlayStation exclusive — at least for the time being — we feared the worst for MGS, but it's looking increasingly likely that Metal Gear Solid 3 remake will make its way to Xbox consoles. Phew!
Are you happy about this? Let us know if you'd play MGS3 remake on Xbox!

Day one buy. No argument.
Imagine after all these rumours and reports, it doesn't even exist 😅
You're acting like it's never been on Xbox before. It came in Subsistence and the HD Collection. It might be possibly timed like SH2 but it will come over.
But from your somewhat rabid writing and "phew" it sounds almost like a it's a relief first time thing.
@UltimateOtaku91
That too. It's a rumoured theory of a rumoured game that's been rumoured for many years. 😂
No "insiders" can possibly know when they don't even know that it truly exists. Yet the article says "reportedly". 😂
So I guess them saying they planned on getting HD Collection re-listed this year was BS?
@UltimateOtaku91 We initially thought that this rumored thing that hasn't been confirmed to exist wasn't coming to Xbox, but happy day! The rumored, possibly-non-existent game is rumored to be coming to Xbox after all!
@hypnotoad
The argument is that remake is not being handled by it's creator yet the company that chased him away
Really want a MGS1 remake over 2 or 3
@Ashadelo Totally with you on that. I suppose the fact that MGS3 takes place the furthest back in the timeline means that it's maybe not a bad place for them to start if they are going to remake the whole lot eventually. Still... 1 or 2 would be preferred first for me.
It'd be good if it does come to Xbox, but Konami's handling of the franchise since 4 means there's a risk they'll end up cheaping out and screwing it up.
That's good but I wouldn't be surprised if it's a one year timed exclusive on PS5.
This would be great. I read that Silent Hill 2's remake is a timed exclusive (but you know how Sony is lately), but MGS 3 is probably my favorite one, so if xbox gets it, great!
I don't mind what it comes to I have both systems but if Konami is making it in house andalone I can't see it being much good to be honest the Konami of old are dead now. probably be a free to play game full of microtransactions god I hope I'm wrong 🙏
@Dan1283 lol you’ll have to pay for each bullet or buy a 3 magazine value pack, one of the many exciting purchase options available
Let’s hope this does happen and will be on Xbox but can we also get Final Fantasy 7 remake as well because that looks epic and would love to play it on Xbox.
@LordFunkalot please don't 😂
Removed - trolling/baiting
@Sixor Who do you think you.......nevermind. You're most likely correct.
@Ashadelo An MGS1 re-remake, you mean?
You'd think that really would be the ideal place to start, though, seeing as the 2004 remake is still stranded on the GameCube to this day.
Or even the original Metal Gear, since that's the most archaic (for obvious reasons). I know it's not as well-known worldwide as MGS, but you'd think being Solid Snake's debut title and including Big Boss would both be major draws now.
@hypnotoad Absolutely. I will never forget Ocelot's cutscenes, or the fight with "The End". So many clear memories of this game even though I played it through so long ago. Also the first MGS that made me really get invested in the love interest, in a noir storytelling kind of way. Here's hoping.
Seriously, MGS 3 on the Ps2 still looks pretty good. It's MGS 1 on the Ps1 that looks like crap. I'd rather get a remake for that one.
