Metal Gear Solid 3: Remake (officially Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater) will reportedly feature the 2004 game's original voice acting.
As reported by The Verge, Konami's head of communications for the Americas Tommy Williams said the remake will feature the original game's dialogue with no changes despite being released close to two decades ago.
The status of the remake's voice acting was up in the air due to unclear wording from Konami, who said alongside the announcement last week that it will "star the original voice characters".
This also means that David Hayter, who voiced Snake in nine different Metal Gear games before being passed over for Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain, will sort of make his return to the franchise. This will seemingly only be through his original lines recorded for the game, of course, and not through new voice acting.
Hayter said following his replacement that he doesn't "feel any need to go back" and work with franchise creator Hideo Kojima (though he's not involved in the remake), and appeared fairly hurt by Konami's decision not to have him return.
"That'll be 60 hours of humiliation that I can’t get to," he said of playing Metal Gear Solid 5 at the time. "I haven’t played the latest two iterations because it’s just too painful."
As for Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater, Konami has also had to explain why there's a strange symbol in its name and that it's not just coming to PlayStation 5 but Xbox Series and PC too.
