As Konami has shown an increasing disinterest in traditional video game development and publishing, fans have been hoping to see its popular IP picked up by other companies. One of the more persistent rumors is that Sony has made deals with Konami for some of its games to make their way to the PlayStation 5 console as exclusives, though nothing official has been announced at the time of this writing.

One Konami franchise in particular, Metal Gear Solid, has been at the center of the rumors. Multiple leaks have suggested that Sony is having Bluepoint Games work on a Metal Gear Solid PS5 remake, but it seems that there may be more than just the original Metal Gear Solid remake to look forward to. Leaker KatharsisT from Resetera has said that there are "several MGS Remakes" in development.

KatharsisT stopped short of providing more details about the Metal Gear Solid remakes, and it's unclear exactly what their scope would be. It's possible that multiple games in the Metal Gear Solid series are indeed getting a full-blown remake treatment like what is supposedly happening with the original game, but it's also possible that some of the other Metal Gear Solid games are getting 4K facelifts instead.

KatharsisT provided no evidence to back up their claims, so fans should take this news with a massive grain of salt for now. That being said, there is at least some evidence that some kind of Metal Gear Solid-related announcement will be happening sooner rather than later.

A mysterious Twitter account has started teasing Metal Gear news, which could come as early as this week. What that news could be is anyone's guess, but the account is pretending to be a character who works at Big Shell, a facility featured in Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. Based on this, one would imagine that whatever the account is teasing is related to Metal Gear Solid 2, with one theory being that the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection is getting ported.

Meanwhile, another leak claims that a brand new Metal Gear Solid collection is in the works, and that Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, currently a pure PS3 exclusive, is going to be making the jump to new platforms as well. Again, none of this has actually been confirmed, and so fans should keep their expectations in check while they wait to see if any Metal Gear news actually drops this week or not.
