GameStop's Slip-Up

GameStop briefly took to X to hint at the release date for Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, stating, "Prepare to slay in Metal Gear Solid [Delta]: Snake Eater. Where stealth & survival meet savagery! Coming 11.17." This proclamation diverges from the placeholder date of December 31, 2025, currently listed on the retailer's website.

However, the post was swiftly removed after lingering for over an hour, leaving gamers to speculate on the authenticity of the leaked date. It remains uncertain whether this revelation was an accidental disclosure or an intentional maneuver by GameStop.

Unraveling the Mystery

The purported release date, November 17, 2024, prompts scrutiny due to its significance. Notably, this date corresponds with the original launch date of Metal Gear Solid 3 in 2004. The coincidence raises questions about whether this date holds symbolic value or if it was mistakenly referenced in the post.

Moreover, the choice of a Sunday for release strikes an unusual chord in the gaming industry, as titles traditionally debut on Tuesdays or Fridays. This anomaly further fuels speculation regarding the authenticity of the leaked information.

Looking Ahead

Despite the absence of an official confirmation, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater continues to command attention. Its recent showcase at the Xbox Games Showcase, accompanied by a captivating gameplay trailer, has intensified anticipation among enthusiasts. Additionally, the commencement of preorders for both the standard and collector's editions signals a forthcoming milestone for the revered franchise.
