Konami and its retail partners have opened up pre-orders for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions of METAL GEAR SOLID Δ: SNAKE EATER, and with it comes the reveal for a Collector’s Edition of the remake of Hideo Kojima’s 2004 action-adventure stealth game that includes an assortment of themed items, including an ID card, two patches, and even a terrarium diorama that features protagonist Naked Snake—the character that goes on to become one of the franchise’s most legendary figures, Big Boss. GameStop has clarified that the game will not be released on November 17, contrary to a tweet that it sent out earlier this week.
