Feel like a chameleon: Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater will feature an online Fox Hunt mode based on active camouflage

Konami held a new gameplay demonstration of Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater and this time gamers were shown not updated graphics or improved mechanics of the remake, but a completely new mode for multiplayer matches.

Here's What We Know

The authors presented Fox Hunt - an online mode, which is significantly different from all similar entertainment previously offered in the series. Up to 12 players can participate in this mode, who will face each other as spies, using all the basic mechanics from the single-player Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater.

The main feature of Fox Hunt will be the cloaking, which changes automatically depending on what surface the player is near. Gameplay footage shows the character being covered in dense grass, mimicry of a brick wall, hiding in mud and blending in with rocks - all to help hide from enemies.

Fox Hunt mode encourages stealth, attentiveness and proper planning of your actions, and players use disguises and traps instead of traditional firefights to win.

At the moment Konami is still working on Fox Hunt and the authors promise to share more details soon.

When We Can Expect It

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater will be released on 28 August on PS5, Xbox Series and PC.
