Should the next MGS project be a remake or a new entry? - Dirty Duck - 23-03-2026
Hello! Here's another of our "Cardboard Box Vox Pops", where we get the general consensus of the forum on some simple questions.
For those of you that use a theme with a sidebox you'll have noticed the poll has appeared there to maximise the number of votes we get. If you wish to explain your answer feel free to in this thread, but otherwise, feel free to vote and explain nothing!
This time our question is about whether the next MGS project should be a remake or a new entry?

Third option:
A remake if that remake is the 1987 Outer Heaven remake.
If it's anything else, no. Make an original entry.

I would like a new game, but at this point I think a remake is more sensible. But just to be clear, when I say remake I absolutely do not mean what Delta was. I mean a fully-fledged remake of Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake (maybe with the ending of MG as an extended prelude), or a remake of Metal Gear Solid, but preferably the former. This needs to be something on the scale of the Final Fantasy VII Remake project. It obviously doesn't need to be anywhere near as big, but it would be a big undertaking still. I'm not entirely sure how receptive the current market would be to going from MGS being in the wilderness to having a few collections released and a tuned-up MGS3 release followed by a brand new title without Kojima. Just don't really know if that feels like the right progression if we want to see MGS re-establish itself again.
