Konami is bringing Snake Eater to the modern era with several exciting updates:

  1. Dual Control Styles: Players can choose between an over-the-shoulder third-person view or a legacy top-down perspective, preserving the original game’s feel while offering modern controls.
  2. Revamped Mechanics: Movement and combat have been fine-tuned, featuring crouch-walking and improved aiming, which refine the stealth experience.
