From our early ideas with Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, it appears to be a close to shot-for-shot remake of Metal Gear Solid 3 however a lot prettier. The first Metal Gear sport in Unreal Engine 5, the Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater system necessities present the hotly anticipated remake is one of some video games just lately that require an RTX card to even play the sport on minimal settings.
Unveiled in a current replace to the Steam web page for the sport, the system necessities are largely what you may anticipate from a contemporary sport, besides you want, at minimal, an RTX 2060 Super which is a mid-range card from simply 5 years in the past.
This is one in all a handful of video games just lately to counsel the identical, with Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, and Doom: The Dark Ages all requiring the identical GPU.
Another minimal spec indicative of up to date sport necessities is the storage, which at the moment requires 100 GB to suit the sport on. Game file sizes are rather less fastened in stone than different components right here, so that is topic to vary, however you’ll want to clear some room upfront both means. An SSD can be really useful, although seemingly not required besides the sport up. You can see the total listing under:

Though an AMD CPU is talked about in each units of specs, an AMG GPU isn’t. There can be no point out of an Intel GPU both. That being stated, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain additionally would not point out an AMD GPU in its system necessities and works tremendous with one so we’ll have to attend till launch to see how non-Nvidia playing cards deal with the sport.
Aside from the elephant within the room that’s the graphics card advice, the CPU necessities aren’t too powerful, with each AMD and Intel decisions out there in funds rigs on the time of their launch. The really useful GPU of an RTX 3080 is not too dangerous, contemplating Indiana Jones and the Great Circle recommends an RTX 2080 Ti, and Ultra settings require an RTX 4080. The RTX 3080 was nonetheless a fairly costly card on its launch (particularly with crypto miners sending costs skyrocketing) however getting really useful specs with a high-end card from 2020 is a bit higher than some related video games.
Notably, the swap from Konami’s personal Fox Engine to Unreal Engine 5 may have some function within the GPU requirement. An RTX 2000-series card or later is required for hardware-based ray tracing with Lumen, Unreal Engine 5’s dynamic illumination and reflection system. If Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater requires hardware-based somewhat than software-based Lumen, this might clarify what is going on on right here. We’ll know far more about it coming as much as launch on August 28, this yr.
