Konami has announced Fox Hunt mode for its upcoming release, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater.
Fox Hunt is a “completely original” online multiplayer mode, which while sharing the world with Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater will have “completely different” gameplay. It is not, the developer has said, Metal Gear Online (they knew you would ask that).
Fox Hunt is “its own, new type of mode,” the team explained during the reveal. “We very much appreciate all the long time fans of MGO, who have always wanted to see it make a comeback. But, the landscape of multiplayer games has changed a lot since MGO.”
A lot of thought was put into coming up with its new online mode, Konami said, and Fox Hunt will have a focus on stealth and survival. “We’re taking camouflage and hide-and-go-seek to the next level,” the studio said, promising “more than just a shoot out”.
This will all be an experience “unique” to Metal Gear. We can expect more news on this online feature down the road, so stayed tuned. In the meantime, you can check out the trailer for Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater’s Fox Hunt mode below.
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is scheduled for release on 28th August, complete with the Ape Escape-themed minigame from the original game. Last month, Konami released the intro video for Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, which is absolutely worth a watch.
