A recent leak has revealed that the upcoming Metal Gear Solid Collection Vol. 2 will include three highly anticipated games: Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, and Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain. This collection marks a significant return for the Metal Gear Solid series, which has been inactive for quite some time.
Konami, the publisher behind Metal Gear Solid, made a strong comeback by making two exciting announcements during the PlayStation showcase event last month. Firstly, they confirmed the release of Metal Gear Solid Collection Vol. 1, which includes the original Metal Gear Solid trilogy. Additionally, they revealed that they are working on a full-scale remake of Metal Gear Solid 3. The title of the first collection, Vol. 1, strongly hinted at the possibility of a second collection, and a recent leak has shed some light on what fans can expect from this highly anticipated release.
PS3 exclusive Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, PSP game Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, and Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain are expected to be included in Metal Gear Solid Collection Vol. 2, as leaked on Konami's website. IGN has confirmed the authenticity of the leaked list, suggesting that Metal Gear Solid fans can anticipate the opportunity to revisit these iconic games following the release of Vol. 1 on October 24.

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker
Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain
The inclusion of Metal Gear Solid 4 in the franchise's lineup is a significant development. The game has been exclusive to the PS3 for over a decade, so the ability to play it on modern platforms is highly anticipated. Fans will be pleased to know that Metal Gear Solid 4 will be bundled together with the popular Peace Walker and Metal Gear Solid 5. While there is a possibility of additional games being included in the collection, it is yet to be confirmed. The first volume of the Metal Gear Solid Collection already features bonus games, such as Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake, so it's possible that the second volume will also offer bonus games. Potential additions could include Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes, the Metal Gear Acid games, Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops, or the non-canon Snake's Revenge and Metal Gear: Ghost Babel.
Konami could also consider creating a third collection, which would encompass the spin-off games and potentially include Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. However, fans should not get too carried away with speculations about a potential third collection just yet. They can eagerly anticipate the release of the first collection on October 24 and hope for the arrival of a second collection with notable titles in the near future. (Source: Twitter, via IGN)
