Metal Gear Solid 3’s level design is considered by many to be a work of art, and to make you fully appreciate the level of detail within it the original game hid 64 hidden frogs called Kerotans throughout its world. Metal Gear Solid Delta keeps all 64 Kerotans from the original game, however just to keep players on their toes Konami has also added 64 extra collectibles called GA-KOs. While you may be able to rely on twenty year old memories to find the Kerotans, these new collectibles may throw you for a loop.
Because they’re very similar collectibles, feel free to use this guide to find both the locations of the Kerotans and GA-KOs in Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater.
Metal Gear Solid Delta: All Kerotan and GA-KO Locations.
Each area of the game contains one Kerotan and one GA-KO, with no exceptions. So make sure that you don’t leave any areas until you have found and shot both of them.
Also keep in mind that areas you visit during both the prologue section and the main game count as separate areas and thus you must find the collectibles there twice.
If you have any issues with this guide feel free to bring them up in the Raider King Discord.

Groznyj Grad Runway (Motorcycle Chase)
These next two collectibles are extremely hard to hit. One piece of advice I can give is thst the game autosaves whenever you enter a new area in this chase. So if you miss your shot, quickly reload your save before you enter the next area. Both collectibles can be found on boxes to your left side as EVA drives down the runway. Kerotan #55 is on box 7 while GA-KO #55 is on box 11.

GA-KO #56 can then be found and shot on a fence in between boxes 25 and 26. The timing on shooting this one is VERY tight as anything Volgin shoots you Snake will put down his gun. So prepare for a few save reloads.
