Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater's Fox Hunt Mode Release Time

The multiplayer mode in Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, titled Fox Hunt, will launch on October 29 at 6 PM PDT, though most other time zones will see it on October 30. Players will need to update to the latest version of the game to access the mode. It's also worth noting that Fox Hunt does not support cross-platform play, so friends must be on the same platform to play together.

Location	Fox Hunt Release Date	Time
Los Angles	October 29	6 PM (PDT)
New York	October 29	9 PM (EDT)
São Paulo	October 29	10 PM (BRT)
London	October 30	1 AM (GMT)
Paris	October 30	2 AM (CET)

Fox Hunt supports up to 12 players with gameplay that revolves around the Metal Gear series' signature mechanics: stealth and survival. Revealed in a new trailer, the mode introduces the AT-Camo device, which allows players to blend into their surroundings. It also features an environmental scanner called Naked Sense, which enables them to detect nearby items and enemies at the cost of stamina.

The multiplayer mode will include three biomes, such as the jungle, along with two rulesets that are randomly assigned to each match. Notably, Fox Hunt will have no microtransactions, suggesting that any unlockable items will probably be earned through progression—if collectibles are included at all.

Despite performance issues and a rocky start on some platforms, it is safe to say that Konami's Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater has been a success. It sold over one million copies shortly after release, and the upcoming Fox Hunt mode has the potential to push sales even higher. The game peaked at around 20,000 concurrent players on Steam, and it will be interesting to see if it can surpass that number on October 30 when Fox Hunt goes live.
