Rumor: Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Could Port Peace Walker, MGS 4 & 5 Next

gameranx.com:

The official Metal Gear website has embedded some teasers for future games that could see rerelease in Metal Gear Solid Master Collection.

Some fans found a screenshot of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots cover art on the website, but that is really small potatoes.

Nitroid on Twitter pointed out that if you just took a look at the website’s page code, you can see that Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Metal Gear Solid 5, and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker are listed in the code.

Now, Nitroid also gave a detailed explanation of what had been observed on the Metal Gear website prior to this announcement, and why supports the case that these games could be rereleased:

As we had just covered, Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Volume 1 comes with some, but not all the games that Konami originally remastered and rereleased in the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection. Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker was in Metal Gear Solid HD Collection, while Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots came as an additional disc for the PlayStation 3 exclusive Metal Gear Solid Legacy Collection.

Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes and The Phantom Pain have not been part of any collection or bundle so far, but they can certainly be capably ported to newer platforms, and that does include the Nintendo Switch. Konami probably won’t have to rerelease the game to Steam, and might have only the flimsiest excuse for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S rereleases, but a Nintendo Switch would be an excellent addition to the platform’s ‘impossible’ ports, which has includes the likes of The Witcher 3 and Doom Eternal.

Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Volume 1 will be released on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and Windows via Steam
