For the nth year in a row ever since Hideo Kojima left Konami, we're hearing rumors of a full remake of the original Metal Gear Solid game.

According to a recent leak, an unnamed studio is working on a Metal Gear Solid remake for the PlayStation 5 as an exclusive title. The same source claims that the remake has been in development for several years, which would be in line with what we heard in the past. More importantly, it's believed that we'll hear more about this project soon.

Although Konami hasn't officially confirmed that it's revisiting Metal Gear Solid, it did mention that it has multiple projects based on its older IPs. Metal Gear Solid might be a part of its attempt at re-establishing itself as a premiere gaming company.

Konami last released a Metal Gear game in 2018 to mostly negative reviews from the series' longtime fans. Metal Gear Survive was largely seen as the company cashing in after Kojima left.
