Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 2 Pre-Order and Save Data Bonus Revealed
LIQUID!!!!!
PlayStation’s State of Play had several announcements from KONAMI, largely focusing on revivals of their major IPs. Metal Gear Solid was also given its due share with the announcement of Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2, which finally frees Metal Gear Solid 4 from its PS3-shaped shackles.
Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 2 Pre-Order Bonus
If you pre-order Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2, you will receive the following cosmetic items:
- Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots Bonus: Cardboard Camouflage
- Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker (HD Collection version) Bonus: Uniform: LOVE BOX
Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 costs $50 across all platforms, and you can pre-order the digital version from the links below:
| Platform | Store Link |
|---|---|
| PC (Steam) | Steam |
| PlayStation 5 | PlayStation Store |
| Xbox Series S|X | Microsoft Store |
| Nintendo Switch | eShop |
| Nintendo Switch 2 | eShop |
You can’t buy individual titles from the collection, but like the first collection, I assume you will be able to download those separately.
Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1 Save Data Bonus
If you have saved data for any title included in METAL GEAR SOLID: MASTER COLLECTION Vol. 1 on your system (PC or console), you will receive the following bonus items in-game:
- Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots Bonus: Gold Camouflage
- Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker (HD Collection version) Bonus: Uniform: GOLD
Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 2 Storage Requirements
You need around 30.4 GB of free space to install everything in the Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 2. You can still choose to install individual titles, which have the following installation sizes:
| Title / Content | Size |
|---|---|
| METAL GEAR SOLID 4: Guns of the Patriots – Master Collection Version | 25.9 GB |
| METAL GEAR SOLID: Peace Walker – Master Collection Version | 4.2 GB |
| Bonus Content | 0.3 GB |
Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 2 System Requirements
| Minimum | Recommended | |
|---|---|---|
| OS | Windows 11 – 64-Bit | Windows 11 – 64-Bit |
| CPU | Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-9600K | Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-10500 |
| RAM | 16 GB | 16 GB |
| GPU | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 |
| DirectX | Version 12 | Version 12 |
| Storage | 34 GB SSD | 34 GB SSD |
The titles in this collection are very old at this point, and if I had to assume, the GTX 970 is required for Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. Since PC users don’t have to rely on emulation anymore, the GTX 970 should be more capable of handling a PS3 title. Everything else is pretty standard, though an SSD is recommended across the board.
Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 2 Release Date
Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 2 launches on PC, Xbox Series S|X, PS5, Nintendo Switch 1 and 2 on August 27, 2026.
It’s great to see that more people will finally get to play Metal Gear Solid 4, which has been stuck on the PS3 since its original release. Peace Walker has been available on consoles, but thankfully, PC players can enjoy it now as well.
