Konami has announced an upcoming update, Version 1.5.0, for Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1, set to release on the Nintendo Switch and other platforms by "late March." The patch notes include fixes for issues such as cutscene interruptions, analog input, and audio distortions on the Switch, as well as added features like pause menus and audio settings. Konami is also investigating remaining issues and plans to provide regular updates on future improvements and fixes.
Rumors suggest that Konami is still developing a remake of the original Metal Gear Solid game, prioritizing it after Metal Gear Solid Delta. The information, coming from multiple sources, indicates that the remake might be a PS5 exclusive, with no current plans for a PS4, PC, or Xbox release. However, as this is unconfirmed speculation, the gaming community is advised to wait for an official announcement. The project has reportedly been in the works for several years, but with Konami's focus on Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, the release of the Metal Gear Solid remake is not expected in the current calendar year.
Sony and Konami have announced that 'Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater' and the 'Silent Hill 2' remake are set for release in 2024, with a new trailer showcasing these and other upcoming PlayStation titles. A leak suggests that 'Silent Hill 2' is nearly complete, currently in the polishing phase, although this has not been officially confirmed by Bloober Team, the developer. 'Silent Hill 2' is being developed for PC, PlayStation 5, and will later be available on Xbox Series.
Konami's upcoming "Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1" will include the original two "Metal Gear" games and the first three "Metal Gear Solid" titles along with "Snake's Revenge". Placeholder buttons for "Metal Gear Solid 4," "Metal Gear Solid 5" and "Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker" were discovered on the official Metal Gear Solid website, indicating that they will be included in "Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2". This would mark the first time "Metal Gear Solid 4" is available on other platforms since its launch in 2008.
The Metal Gear Solid Master Collection physical edition for Nintendo Switch requires a 31.4 GB download, making it difficult for those with limited SD card space. Fans express disappointment and frustration, wishing for a physical edition that actually stores the game data on the cartridge.
Placeholder buttons for Metal Gear Solid 4, Metal Gear Solid 5, and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker have been found on the official Metal Gear Solid website, leading to speculation that a second collection, the Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 2, is in the works. The first collection was announced during May's PlayStation Showcase and will feature Metal Gear Solid and HD Collection versions of both Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, as well as other titles. Konami has yet to confirm any details about a second collection.
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker are rumored to be included in the upcoming Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Volume 2, according to sources. Metal Gear Solid 4, which is not playable on modern PlayStation consoles and has never been ported, would be a significant addition. The first volume of the collection is set to release on October 24, 2023, and will include several remastered versions of previous Metal Gear Solid games.
The line-up for Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 has reportedly leaked, including Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain, and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. The first volume of the collection will be released on October 24 and will include seven games, with a remake of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater also in the works for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
Konami may have leaked the lineup for Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol.2, which includes Metal Gear Solid 4, Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, and Metal Gear Solid V. This would mark the first time that Metal Gear Solid 4 has ever been available on Xbox. No release date has been announced yet.
Leaks suggest that Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots may be getting a port to other systems as part of a future Metal Gear Solid bundle, according to data found on the Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 website. The bundle is set to release on October 24 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC, and will include several other Metal Gear Solid games. However, it's worth noting that series creator Hideo Kojima will not be involved in porting the games to current-gen consoles.
The PC version of Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Volume 1 may not support keyboard and mouse controls, according to messages reportedly displayed on the Steam pages for the individual games. Konami has not yet confirmed if these claims are accurate. The collection will be released physically and digitally on October 24 and will include Metal Gear Solid, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, among others.
Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2, which is expected to launch on PC, PS5, Xbox Series X and S, and Nintendo Switch, will include Metal Gear Solid 4, which has been exclusive to PlayStation 3 since its launch in 2008. The collection will also include Metal Gear Solid 5 and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. Metal Gear Solid Collection Vol. 1, which includes Metal Gear Solid, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake, will also be released, marking the first-ever release of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater on PC.
