Konami's upcoming Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 puts Metal Gear Solid 4 front and center, marking a rare appearance of the PS3-era entry on platforms other than its original home. Alongside the headline release the collection hides a Game Boy Color extra that fans are already calling one of the handheld's standout entries, even if it doesn't fit the series' official continuity.

  • Metal Gear Solid 4 is the marquee inclusion, notable because it’s being packaged for systems beyond the PlayStation 3, a move that feels unexpected for a title so tied to its original hardware.
  • The bonus Game Boy Color game is described as non-canonical but high quality; early impressions suggest it ranks among the stronger GBC efforts linked to the franchise.
  • Reactions mix delight and disbelief — long-time players are excited to see MGS4 become more accessible, while others are surprised to find such a major PlayStation exclusive in a cross-platform compilation.
  • Beyond nostalgia, the collection raises conversations about preservation and how beloved console-era gems are being repackaged for modern audiences, sometimes in unconventional bundles.
