by Samuel May 19,2025

The highly anticipated Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater retains the suggestive and sexual content from its predecessor, Metal Gear Solid 3, including the controversial Peep Demo Theatre, as confirmed by the ESRB's Mature 17+ rating. This rating highlights the game's realistic gunfire, cries of pain, bloody combat, and the inclusion of "suggestive/sexual content." The ESRB's detailed report mentions scenes of intense violence and blood, such as a character being beaten and electrocuted, shot in the eye, and another being shot multiple times while on fire.

Moreover, the ESRB report elaborates on the game's suggestive/sexual content, which includes scenes of a man groping a woman's breasts, close-up camera angles focusing on deep cleavage, a character briefly groping a man's crotch, and the Peep Demo Theatre. This feature, originally found in the Subsistence and HD Collection versions of Metal Gear Solid 3, allows players to view cutscenes of a female character in her underwear from a first-person perspective, unlocked after completing the game four times.

Konami has officially announced that Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater will be released on August 28. Alongside this announcement, a new teaser trailer revealed the return of the beloved Snake vs. Monkey minigame. 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," emphasizing its beautiful yet almost faultlessly faithful approach to the original. The original Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater received an impressive score of 9.6 from IGN, highlighting its enduring appeal and quality.
