Konami reveals Fox Hunt, an all-new multiplayer mode coming to Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater

The launch of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater approaches, and Konami dropped more big news about the anticipated remake during this week’s Konami Press Start Broadcast. Fox Hunt is an all-new multiplayer mode headed to Snake Eater that leverages the series’ emphasis on stealth and survival for a unique online experience that Konami hopes will differentiate it from other modern multiplayer games.


“We challenged ourselves to make something unique that is more than just a shootout.” Yu Sahara, Fox Hunt’s game director, said during the Konami Press Start Broadcast. “We’ve used that back-and-forth tension of staying hidden or searching out the enemy to create an online experience unique to Metal Gear.”


While some Metal Gear fans have been clamoring for the resurrection of Metal Gear Online, the series’ first foray into competitive multiplayer in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Sahara made it clear that Fox Hunt isn’t that. 


The Fox Hunt reveal included footage of players instantaneously changing camouflage to match the terrain, giving us a glimpse into some of the mode’s core mechanics. However, beyond this and its focus on stealth gameplay, no other details were provided regarding the mode’s rules and competitive aspects.  


Whether or not Fox Hunt will be ready and available for Snake Eater’s August 28 launch on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam is unclear. We’ll keep you posted when the mode’s release details are announced.
