"Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater Retains Original MGS3's Suggestive Content, Rating Indicates"

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater will feature the suggestive and sexual content originally seen in Metal Gear Solid 3, including the controversial Peep Demo Theatre, as indicated by its age rating.

While Konami has not officially confirmed the retention of this content, the ESRB has rated the game Mature 17+ due to its realistic gunfire, cries of pain, bloody combat, and "suggestive/sexual content." The ESRB's detailed report highlights the game's intense violence and gore, stating: "Cutscenes depict further instances of violence/blood: a restrained character beaten and electrocuted; a character shot in the eye; a character on fire shot several times."

"The game contains some suggestive/sexual content: a man groping a woman's breasts; close-up camera angles of deep cleavage; a character briefly groping a man's crotch; a Peep Demo Theatre allowing players to view cutscenes of a female character's body from a first-person perspective."

The Peep Demo Theatre, an unlockable feature from the Subsistence and HD Collection versions of the original Metal Gear Solid 3, allows players to manipulate the camera during a cutscene featuring Eva in her underwear. This feature is unlocked after completing the game four times.

Konami has confirmed that Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater will be released on August 28, and a new teaser trailer has revealed that the Snake vs. Monkey minigame will also return.

In our Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater preview, IGN described the game as "more like a very shiny HD remaster than the elegant remake it could have been," noting its "admittedly beautiful nostalgia trip, but almost faithful to a fault." The original Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater received an impressive score of 9.6 from us.
