With Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater set to arrive at the end of August 2025, Konami offered an update on the Fox Hunt online multiplayer mode. It will appear in Fall 2025. It will be a competitive mode, and it also again established this is a hide-and-seek type of competition.
The updated site noted it is based on Metal Gear Online “Sneaking.” In that PS3 game, there were multiple stealth multiplayer options. The standard Sneaking Mission involved an OctoCamo Snake who may or may not have an ally and others trying to find him. Team Sneaking involved one stealth team and the other defending against them. The third was a free-for-all that involved every player with stealth camouflage to hide and take out others.
Here are some of the latest Fox Hunt screenshots Konami shared:




One element we won’t have to wait for. The Ape Escape crossover content will be in Metal Gear Solid Delta at launch. The Snake Escape minigame appeared in the original title.
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater will come out on August 28, 2025 for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and PC via Steam, and the Fox Hunt online multiplayer mode will debut sometime in Fall 2025. Standard and collector’s editions will be available.
