Critical reaction has skewed positive overall, with strong appreciation for the visuals, narrative fidelity, and immersive enhancements. Tom’s Guide dubbed it “the definitive version of MGS3." However, some reviewers noted an uneasy fusion between modern looks and dated mechanics. The Verge pointed out that antiquated gameplay systems like trial and error progression, narrow levels with frequent load screens, and clunky healing—can feel frustrating, especially alongside the stunning graphics.
