Despite the PS5 being Sony’s flagship format these days, its previous generation console the PS4 continues to receive robust software support from most major publishers. It’s perhaps not a gigantic surprise that Konami has committed to releasing its retro compilation Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 on the decade-old device then.
Our friends at Nintendo Life attended a preview event where the game was officially confirmed for Sony’s previous platform, corroborating ESRB leaks earlier in the year. It’s unclear whether the game will be available day-and-date, on 24th October, with the PS5 release – but representatives for the publisher said that the PS4 port has been commissioned due to fan demand.
Obviously, this is a compilation featuring PS1 and PS2 titles, so presentation and performance is unlikely to differ too much between Sony’s more contemporary consoles, and therefore the games should run smoothly on both the PS5 and PS4. Are you happy to see a last-gen port confirmed for this compilation? Let us know in the comments section below.

I have a pal that will be very happy about this
This makes sense. I hope it is also cross buy.
Sonys accountants will make PS4 games for life!!! Like Dick Jones said, spare parts for 10 years!!!
So far all footage they released runs in 30 FPS so...prepare for another disappointing performance on PS4/5 like RDR
@MagisterMagi mgs2 and 3 are based on the bluepoint ps3 ports so they will be 60fps. Mgs2 was 60 on ps2 as well
@Luigia Who cares if it works or not??
Makes sense with it being on Switch tbf
