Metal Gear Solid Delta PC Requirements Revealed, And You'll Need A Lot Of Free Storage Space
Snake's on a plane.
Ahead of its release on August 28, the PC requirements for Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater have gone live on Steam. It's not the most exhaustive list of minimum and recommended PC requirements--especially this far out from its launch--but it does give a good indicator of what you'll need to run the Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater remake.
On the GPU side, the minimum recommendation here is an RTX 2060 Nvidia graphics card, with no mention of an AMD equivalent yet, and it's recommended that you have an RTX 3080 GPU. Early looks at Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater have shown off a very lush environment for players to sneak through, and with the game being developed in Unreal Engine 5, you're naturally going to need a lot of storage capacity for the game's install files.
Konami recommends 100GB of storage capacity, and while an SSD isn't mandatory, it is recommended. Beyond that, the CPU and RAM requirements seem quite reasonable, although the PC requirements are subject to change before the game arrives. We also don't know yet what these requirements are targeting in terms of resolution and frame rates.
