Konami has said remaking the first Metal Gear Solid would be much more complicated than its incoming remake of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater.

In an interview with Famitsu translated by Genki on X/Twitter, Metal Gear Solid series producer Noriaki Okamura didn't shut down the possibility of other remakes but made clear they wouldn't be coming anytime soon.

This is because a remake of the first Metal Gear Solid, alongside the original two Metal Gear games released for the MSX2 and Nintendo Entertainment System, would require the creation of many brand new elements.

Interview details:
 
I absolutely love MGS, especially MGS3. But the more I see of this remake, the more it feels like a remaster instead. I’m not sure how excited I can get about just updated graphics. I guess Capcom's approach with their Resident Evil remakes has spoiled me!
 
Well instead they could remaster games like Twin Snakes if they think MGS1 is harder, not everything has to be a graphical masterpiece btw Jesus Christ
