How to Escape the Prison Cell in Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater

by

In the world of Metal Gear, being imprisoned by the antagonist is a common trope, and Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater replicates the cell from the PS2 version precisely. Interestingly, unlike some other games in the series, Metal Gear Solid Delta does not provide any clues on how to break free from this prison cell. Consequently, it’s quite simple to find yourself stumped while playing at this point in the game.

It’s great news that there are multiple methods for breaking out of the prison cell in Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater. Some are simple and easy to grasp, but those who have been carefully watching the earlier scenes will find some intriguing and innovative solutions. Plus, a popular minigame from the original game is back again in MGS Delta. Here’s how to break out of the prison cell in Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater.

Make Snake Throw Up

One simple way to bypass the confinement in Groznyj Grad prison within Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is to induce Snake to vomit. To accomplish this, access the cure menu as if you were about to remove a bullet or tend to a wound. After that, turn Snake around repeatedly for approximately 30 seconds.

Upon shutting the menu, Snake appears to become lightheaded and vomits on the prison floor. This action alerts the guard, who then enters to attend to him. At this opportune moment, you can execute a close quarters combat (CQC) move to subdue him. Enjoy your newfound freedom!

Upon dialing Para-Medic for a save during your imprisonment, and restarting the game thereafter, you’ll gain access to a hidden action-packed minigame featuring the protagonist Guy Savage.

Fake Death Pill

In the game “Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes,” one effective method to break free from your cell is by employing the so-called “Fake Death Pill.” This trick will cause the guard to enter the cell, thinking Snake has died, as he checks on him. If you closely observed the previous scene, you might have noticed that The Boss secretly gave Snake some gear beforehand.

Access the healing menu, where you’ll find a Transmitter and a Simulated Demise Pill lodged in two of Snake’s injuries. Retrieve them with the Utensil. After consuming the Simulated Demise Pill, the guard will enter the cell. Once the door is open, utilise the Revitalization Pill to regenerate and make your escape.

Secret Radio Frequency

At last, there’s a hidden code for a specific radio frequency that can open the cell door for you. You can discover this frequency in two ways. The first is by pressing R1/RB during one of the earlier scenes. During this scene, The Sorrow will hold up a sign displaying the number “144.75” behind other characters. If you tune your radio to that frequency, the door should open.

This version tries to make the language more natural and easier to read by rephrasing some of the original sentences, using clearer explanations, and avoiding abbreviations where possible. Additionally, it provides a bit more context for those who may not be familiar with the game’s characters or controls.

You have another option to make the guard abandon this specific frequency. This can be achieved by performing a hidden scene, which you can trigger during feeding times by throwing your food back at the guard. Repeat this action several times and the scene will start. Once the scene plays, an R1/RB command will appear, allowing you to switch to first-person view. In this mode, you’ll notice that “144.75” is marked on the back of a photograph.

To make the guard leave a certain frequency, do a secret performance during feeding times by throwing your food at him. Repeat this action multiple times to start the hidden scene. Once the scene starts, an R1/RB command will appear, letting you switch to first-person view, where you’ll see “144.75” written on the back of a picture.

After escaping your prison cell, navigating Groznyj Grad without your gear will be crucial. Fortunately, you’ll retrieve all your belongings upon rejoining EVA shortly after. However, this stage in Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is particularly challenging. Tread carefully and aim to avoid confrontations for the time being.
