Just three weeks ago, a video went up on YouTube from a creator called Frogbull showing off their very own prototype of Metal Gear Solid running on the Sega Saturn. Seemingly looking to prove wrong the naysayers claimed MGS could never have run on the Saturn, the results looked very impressive, and definitely had many Sega fans intrigued to see what was next from Frogbull. Little did I expect, however, that next we'd see Metal Gear Solid's sequel, Sons of Liberty running on the Dreamcast. But don't just take my word for it, see it for yourself below!
Seeing this game in action on the Dreamcast is simply mind blowing. It was also really cool to learn that this homebrew prototype build was developed using Luke Benstead's Simulant Engine (with tools from Jayveer and SecaProject). I also loved the tribute at the end of the video to the late Hidekazu Yukawa. Excellent job, Frogbull.

This is awesome! I hope we get a playable demo at some point soon too - I always wanted MGS on Dreamcast 😊
This is so good. I loved seeing the Saturn demo - think that MGS would have worked brilliantly on the Saturn especially with use of the infinite planes etc for the floor in some levels and ceiling etc. Even better to see MGS2 on Dreamcast. Astonishing stuff :-)
Very cool. I wonder how this is being done...is the game being recreated from scratch or is it using elements from the PS2 game? My brain hurts...
Stunning
