Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater November release date might have just leaked by accident

Update: GameStop has now admitted it was incorrect about the release date. Nooooooooo, Snaaaaaaakkkkkeeee!

Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater has to be one of my most anticipated game releases of the year (or ever) – I grew up up playing these games, my X (Twitter) profile pic is a classic image of Snake, and, more importantly, GameStop might have just leaked the release date!!! A new trailer for the game debuted at the epic Xbox Game Showcase over the weekend – it looks incredible – and a new video featuring the game landed on the Konami YouTube channel today announcing the pre-orders (now live on Amazon on PS5 and Xbox, if you’re quick), and it looks like it might be releasing on November 17th! Details below. 

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater November release date might have just leaked

Well the brand new trailer for the remake is a seriously epic one, but it, to the entire internet’s disappointment, did not end with the only thing we were really all waiting for…the release date.

“Kept you waiting huh?”

But after pre-orders went live this afternoon…GameStop might have just let the snake out of the bag. 

At precisely 5:00 p.m. ET today, the official GameStop X (Twitter feed) posted the following:

Prepare to slay in Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater.

Where stealth & survival meet savagery!

Coming 11.17 – watch the trailer & pre-order now

Here’s a screenshot in case this was a massive mistake and they try to delete it:

Now, of course, this could be massive mistake and GameStop just has the dates wrong. This could even mean November 17, 2025. Who really knows at this point…but here’s to hoping.

• The story, characters, voice acting, gameplay, and music that made the original a sensation return, remade for modern consoles
• This evolutionary leap breathes new life into every cutscene, and rebuilds every corner of the world
• Incredible new graphics bring the wild growth of the jungles, forests, and swamps to life in exquisite detail
• Characters are rendered in fine detail so that facial wrinkles, pores, & separate eye & iris movements are visible, allowing for rich animations
• Any injuries to his actual body will leave their mark permanently, telling a story of each player’s unique journey
