Metal Gear Solid Master Collection 2 is confirmed for PS5, and I really hope that means Metal Gear Solid 4 is headed for PC

Metal Gear Solid Master Collection 2 was confirmed during Sony’s PlayStation State of Play showcase today, bundling Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker with a bunch of supplementary material, including the Game Boy Color instalment Metal Gear: Ghost Babel.

It’s a big moment for series fans: Metal Gear Solid 4 has been stuck on the PS3 since its June 2008 release. Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker was a handheld outing, and has similarly been stuck on decades old hardware. The version of Peace Walker in the collection is the PS3 HD Collection version which, as the name implies, looked sharper and played better than the older handheld version.

The collection releases on August 26 for PS5. No word yet on whether this PS5 collection will hit PC, but considering the first Metal Gear Solid Master Collection did, I have high hopes that it will.

Still, it would be a much bigger deal if this did hit PC: while the mainline Metal Gear games in the first collection had all hit PC and Xbox before, Metal Gear Solid 4 has never released for another platform. I’ll update this story once I’ve confirmed.
