What's Happening?
Konami has announced that the Fox Hunt multiplayer mode in the upcoming Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater will not support crossplay. This decision has sparked disappointment among fans, as crossplay has become a standard expectation in modern multiplayer games. The announcement was made on the Japanese Metal Gear X account, but no explanation was provided for the lack of crossplay functionality.
Why It's Important?
The absence of crossplay in Fox Hunt could affect the game's reception and player engagement, as cross-platform play is a significant feature for multiplayer communities. This decision may limit the game's reach and player base, potentially impacting sales and the game's long-term success. Konami's choice not to include crossplay could also reflect broader challenges in adapting to evolving gaming industry standards.

What's Next?
Konami may face pressure to reconsider its decision or provide a detailed explanation to appease the gaming community. The company might also explore future updates or patches to introduce crossplay, depending on player feedback and market demand. The game's release later this month will be a critical period for assessing player reactions and potential adjustments.
