Ground Zeroes and The Phantom Pain saw a marked shift in the Metal Gear Solid format. Metal Gear Solid 6 may not have been confirmed by Konami, but here's what we would want to see in a new Metal Gear Solid game.

We imagine if Metal Gear Solid 6, or some new series entry, is on the way that it will arrive on PS5, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and PC at the very least. Good news, though not what we were hoping for. What it has confirmed (opens in new tab) on the game's 35th anniversary is that it's working on putting Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3 back on sale after they were delisted in late 2021.

Konami hasn't confirmed these plans, however. VGC's (opens in new tab) October 2021 report claims that Konami has a new Metal Gear project in early development and that it's also planning remasters of the original Metal Gear Solid games. It's possible we may see both of these approaches, however. So, without Kojima, we could either see Konami attempt to put its own stamp on the next instalment in the current Metal Gear Solid series or that the developer finds a different approach to keeping the series alive, potentially with a reboot. It's hard to imagine a Metal Gear Solid game without Kojima at the helm and, since his exit from Konami, it's likely the studio is very aware of that. Now, it's possible Kojima is the reason we've been waiting so long for a new entry in the Metal Gear Solid series, but for a very different reason. However, part of the reason for their long development times was the control Hideo Kojima had over the series, something that is rumored to have been behind his exit from Konami. There were seven years between Metal Gear Solid 4 and 5, and four between 3 and 4. If a new Metal Gear Solid game is on the cards, then it will mark the longest wait between series entries to date (as it's currently seven years since Metal Gear Solid 5 was released). Especially because, unlike other major series, the Metal Gear games have never been released on a strict schedule. As we've said above, Konami hasn't officially announced Metal Gear Solid 6 so, right now, a new entry in the stealth series is unconfirmed.Īs such, if Konami does plan to release a new Metal Gear Solid game in the future, it's hard to predict when we might get our hands on it.
