Konami fuels speculation about a potential Metal Gear Solid 4 remake and next-gen ports, hinting at its inclusion in the anticipated Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2.
Konami Hints at MGS4 Remake and Next-Gen Ports
MGS Master Collection Vol. 2 May Include Metal Gear Solid 4
In an interview with IGN, Konami producer Noriaki Okamura subtly acknowledged the fervent fan desire for a Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (MGS4) remake and its release on modern consoles (PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC). While avoiding concrete confirmation, Okamura's comments strongly suggest its inclusion in MGS Master Collection Vol. 2. He cited the ongoing internal discussions regarding the series' future as the reason for withholding details.
The possibility of an MGS4 PS5 port has been a significant topic of discussion among fans, especially considering the PS3 exclusive title's absence from current-gen platforms. The successful release of Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1, featuring remastered versions of the first three games on various platforms, further fuels this speculation.
Last year, placeholder buttons for MGS4, MGS5, and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker appeared on Konami's official timeline, adding fuel to the fire. IGN reported these titles as likely candidates for Master Collection Vol. 2. Further fan speculation arose from comments by David Hayter, the English voice actor for Solid Snake, hinting at involvement in an MGS4-related project.
Despite the mounting evidence, Konami remains officially silent on the contents of MGS Master Collection Vol. 2, leaving fans eagerly awaiting confirmation of the highly anticipated MGS4 remake.
