Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 is a compilation from Konami that continues the studio's effort to preserve Hideo Kojima's stealth-action saga for modern hardware. The package centers on Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker (the HD Collection version), and rounds out the set with bonus content including the handheld spin-off Metal Gear: Ghost Babel and the Metal Gear Solid: Digital Soundtrack Vol. 2. It follows the first Master Collection, which gathered the earlier numbered entries in the series.

The collection arrives on Thursday, August 27, 2026, across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2 and PC via Steam. Konami revealed it during Sony's State of Play showcase on February 12, 2026, and opened pre-orders for both physical and digital versions the following day. The standard edition carries a $49.99 list price, and early buyers receive a Day One Edition with in-game costumes for Metal Gear Solid 4 and Peace Walker.

Anticipation is high because Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots had never been re-released since its 2008 debut as a PlayStation 3 exclusive, leaving the finale of Solid Snake's story tied to aging hardware for well over a decade. Longtime fans have spent years asking for a modern port, and this collection finally makes the game playable on current consoles and PC. Peace Walker's inclusion, with its cooperative missions, adds further appeal for players who missed it on PSP.
