Metal Gear Solid Delta System Requirements and Recommended Specs

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater was originally released on the PS2 in 2004 and quickly became a fan-favorite of the franchise. Combining the popular stealth gameplay, 60s Cold War intrigue, and truly mind-blowing graphics (for the time) made the game a hit from the get-go.

It's popularity hasn’t waned in the years since, either. Ask any MGS fan and they will invariably bring up MGS 3. This means that there’s a very high number of people looking forward to this remake, known for whatever reason as Metal Gear Solid Delta, or Metal Gear Solid Δ in some ◯s.

Now, let’s see if your machine can even handle it by talking about the Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater system requirements.

Can I Run Metal Gear Solid Delta?

Despite what looks to be an absolutely sumptuously rendered game, the system requirements for Metal Gear Solid Delta are a little more accessible than we expected. If you fall short, we’d recommend a new GPU as the first priority. Due to the Soviet jungle setting, the light streaming down through the trees to collect in puddles on the forest floor might weigh on your GPU quite heavily.

Additionally, because of the game’s emphasis on stealth and matching the correct camo to the environment, the textures of this game are sure to be obsessively detailed, too. This can be helped by higher capacity and faster RAM, 32GB of DDR5 will take care of this for you. The specs on the Steam Store Page for Metal Gear Solid Delta also recommend an SSD. If for some reason you’re still installing your games on an HDD like a damned cave man, grab an NVMe SSD like the MP600 Elite to improve the loading times, and lessen any potential texture pop-in.

If you’re super keen on experiencing this game at its best, we’d have to advise an OLED gaming monitor. This way you’ll be sure you’ll experience Naked Snake’s subterfuge and silliness in the best way possible.

What Kind of Game is Metal Gear Solid Delta?

We mentioned that it’s a remake of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, so if you’re familiar with that title, or any of the older MGS games, you’ll know what to expect, but for those who are new to this franchise, we’ll break it down.

This game puts a heavy emphasis on stealth. You’re one man against an overwhelming number of Soviet soldiers. You must crawl, trudge, and roll through the forests of a made up part of the USSR. There is freedom in this gameplay however, as most encounters give you the choice of killing, knocking out, or sneaking by the enemies entirely undetected.

Happily, however, this is not one of those insta-fail stealth games. In Metal Gear Solid Delta, if you’re spotted you can go loud and get into a proper gunfight. Or, if you prefer, you can run off and hide, and patiently wait in the mud as the enemies gradually calm down.

As expected from a Metal Gear Solid game, there are some truly unique boss fights against some of the most bizarre, memorable, and unsettling foes ever seen on a screen. We won’t spoil these for you, as they're best experienced without any prior knowledge. Besides, it’s a Kojima game, so even if we tried, we probably couldn’t do the boss fights justice.

Just know that some of the most memorable sections involve a ladder, a guy who loves guns and won't shut up, and one fight where if you can’t win, the game literally wins it for you.

Video games really don’t get more unique than this one. Enjoy
