ESRB certification agency has given an age rating to Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater, thanks to which it became known that the authors of the remake from Virtuos Studios did not change the scenes from the original 2005, which now may seem crude and not quite correct.

Here's What We Know

ESRB experts stated that the game is not recommended for people under 17 years old and gave the game an "M" rating.

They justified their verdict by the fact that the game has a lot of violence, violent scenes, images of blood, screams of pain, there is profanity. In addition, as in the original, the updated game contains scenes where "a woman is grabbed by her breasts (Eva) and a man by his crotch" - fans of the game will easily remember both of these episodes.

Also in the new version of Snake Eater there is Demo Theater mode, which allows you to control the camera during the staged scenes and in one of the episodes with its help you can get a detailed look at Eve in her underwear, but for this you need to play the game four times.

When We Can Expect It

Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater will be released on 28 August on PS5, Xbox Series and PC. The novelty will include content from the Sneaking DLC add-on.
