A genuine PS2 classic gets a full remake using Unreal Engine 5, with Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater brimming with promise in its recent Xbox Showcase trailer. Everything from MGS3's cut-scenes to animations are kept here, but with a radical reworking to detail over the top. Materials, shadows and more are supplanted with a cutting edge UE5 approach - so how does it compare to the original?
