Metal Gear Solid Remake by Bluepoint Games
Metal Gear’s future is very much up in the air after Hideo Kojima (the father of Meal Gear) left Konami and started his development studio, Kojima Productions.
Konami hasn’t been vocal lately with what they plan to do with the future of their IPs like Metal Gear, Silent Hill, and Castlevania, despite them all being and financial successes.
There is a Metal Gear Solid film coming, though, so it would be strange to let the momentum from that movie lead to nothing. A new game in the series might be a big ask, but a remake of the first game made by Bluepoint Games is more realistic.
Bluepoint is known for doing video game remasters and remakes such as The Uncharted Collection, Shadow of the Colossus for PS4, and Demon’s Souls.
They even did the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection for PS3 & Xbox 360. The team is intimately familiar with the series, and the recent Demon’s Souls remake proves that they can make go beyond basic expectations.
Perhaps the most significant point of contention would be how the game plays when it comes to perspective. The original game used fixed camera angles, while the newer games used the third-person, over-the-shoulder perspective.
Having the option to play the game both ways could be a big win for this game that would appease old fans while attracting new ones.
And bring back David Hayter to voice Solid Snake!
