Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is a chance to step back into Snake’s legendary origin story, rebuilt with breathtaking visuals and modern controls. The dense jungle, tense stealth encounters, and survival mechanics all return, but this time they feel more immersive than ever.

In this part of the walkthrough, we infiltrate Groznyj Grad and fight The Sorrow. We have also included the locations of the Kerotan Frogs and Gako Ducks 42-47.

Operation Snake Eater: The Sorrow

Groznyj Grad Underground Tunnel

After the fight with the Fury is over, you will be trapped inside the underground tunnel. You can pick up the Fire Uniform if you beat The Fury non-lethally. Head straight and climb up the ladder.

Watch the cutscene play out. Once its done, head to the right and pick up the ammo from under the stairs. Go up the stairs and keep to the right and sneak past the two patrolling guards.

Go back out to the courtyard.

Inside the vent take the right channel into Groznyj Grad Northeast

Groznyj Grad Northeast (drain)

Keep going and look at the left channel.

Kerotan Frog 46

Keep going straight through. Turn right at the end. Go through and come out the opening. Enter the building on the left to pick up rations. Avoid the spotlights.

Keep close to the fence and turn left.

Gako Duck 46

Look up at the fence and slightly to the left.

Turn to the right and then go past the armored vehicles and guards. Take the door on the right.

Groznyj Grad Weapons Lab: East Wing

Gako Duck 47

Turn to the left and look at the planters.

Go straight past the stairs and into the corridor at the back. Take out the soldier there. Now pull him to the door at the back to open the storage room. His key card will activate the lock.

You can find the SMG Scorpion in this room. Go out and to the left, then around to go up the stairs on the other side. Equip the Scientist Uniform now. Once you go past the soldier who looks like Raiden from MGS 2, this is Raikov. Take him out.

You now want to clear a path to the other flight of stairs on the other side of the building. Take out the guards in the building. Then pick up Raikov and drag him all the way to the other stairs and then up it.

Go through the rooms and soon you will trigger a cutscene. Equip the Officer uniform and the Mask facepaint. As you exit this room, pick up the Handkerchief under the table in the canteen.

In the training room, look up at the bookshelves.

Kerotan Frog 47

Go back towards the lockers and turn to the right to find a door and exit this area.

Groznyj Grad Weapons Lab: Main Wing

Go through the corridor into the next section.

Groznyj Grad Weapons Lab: West Wing Corridor

Go up to the two soldiers standing guard. Another cutscene will trigger. Watch through the scenes and you will wake up in a different place.

Groznyj Grad Torture Room

Once Volgin wakes you up watch through this series of cutscenes. The important part during these scenes are that  If you click R1 during the scene when the Boss gives you the gun, you’ll see The Sorrow holding up a sign with a frequency on it 144.75, that you’ll need to use later. Once they all end, you will be in a cell. Pick up the fork and equip it. You’ll also find that the bullet The Boss shot you with was a fake death pill if you look in the Cure menu, so take that out as well. You can also remove the transmitter here, but if you don’t, a few parts of the game will become more difficult, and you’ll also be treated to an extra scene later.

Use the frequency 144.75 to unlock the door if you have it. If not, Take the fake death pill and then the guard will come check on you. After the guard checks on you, use the revival pill and then take him out after.

After you escape, leave out the brown door to get back to Groznyj Grad Southeast.

Groznyj Grad Southeast

You’re practically naked in this part, so be sure to proceed with extreme caution. You won’t have camo either, so you’ll just have to run around and be sure to be completely unseen by guards. Run across to the wall on the other side of you when the guards aren’t looking and crawl through the hole.

Groznyj Grad Northeast

After getting out, head left and run past the gate. A guard in the open may see you here, but keep running as he won’t trigger an alarm immediately. Head through the door behind the tent.

Groznyj Grad Northwest

Run past the first set of tanks but stop at the end. You should see two guards patrolling the area in the middle of the tanks. When they both turn away and begin to walk their own paths, run through the middle of the tanks and take out the far guard with CQC until he’s unconscious. Then, run right and under the bridge, past the sleeping dog on your right. Run through the open door near the dog and then crawl under the pipes to the very end. Eventually, you should see a manhole. Go through it.

Groznyj Grad Sewers

After entering the sewers, you’ll get a call from EVA confirming your location in the sewers. She’ll let you know that Volgin figured out you escaped and tell you that they’ve completely sealed off all of Groznyj Grad, including the sewers. Jump into the sewers and then climb up at the end to find a hole you can crawl through. Ignore the dog when you crawl through and turn right to find another hole at the end to crawl through.

Keep running to the end of the sewers and crawling through the holes that you can while subsequently ignoring the dogs, as you can get overwhelmed if you don’t and you don’t have a good means of defending yourself. Eventually, you should end up at the end of the sewers with natural light, keep running towards until you exit the area, which triggers a scene.

Watch the cutscenes play out and prepare for a boss fight.

Boss Fight: The Sorrow

This isn’t really a “fight”. More like an experience – depending on how you have playing the number of spirits you have to face will increase. If you have been killing people, you will have a lot more spirits to avoid. Otherwise it will just be the Cobra unit bosses you have fought so far. I have been playing a pacifist run so I only had to deal with the Cobra Unit.

The Sorrow will also fire some ethereal beams at you, so strafe and avoid them too. Every animal you have killed will float by you as well. Eventually you will die. Just take the revival pill to come back to life. Once this happens just watch the cutscenes play out. This will be the end of the Cobras.
