Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 finally has a release date and will introduce a new generation of players to Metal Gear Solid 1 to 3. It also includes several goodies from graphic novels to strategy guides and even has Metal Gear 1 and2. Even before Vol. 1 is out, Konami is reportedly already planning Vol. 2.
Its official website for Metal Gear Solid has added buttons for games in Vol. 1 on the History page. However, as noted by Twitter user Nitroid, inspecting the page reveals placeholder buttons for Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Metal Gear Solid 5 and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. It could mean a potential Vol. 2 is coming with these titles. IGN said it “understands this lineup for Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 is accurate” and awaits comment from Konami.
While one could assume that the buttons for Vol. 1 link to generic listings for each game, they lead to new pages showcasing screenshots and images from the upcoming compilation. The old listings can still be found under “Lineup” on the official site, but ifVol. 2 does happen, this would be Konami laying the groundwork.
Interestingly, when Konami first announced Vol. 1, it listed all three titles, but also had a “?” and “Stay tuned for more information.” The section has since been updated to include Metal Gear 1 and2, along with other goodies, but the existence of placeholders for other titles gives some hope. It’s especially noteworthy for fans of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, which has been stuck on PS3 since its 2008 release.
Stay tuned for further updates. Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 releases on October 24th for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PC and Nintendo Switch.
