Released on October 24, the Master Collection drew considerable attention, though not all were positive. Konami acknowledged over a dozen issues with Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 a day before its release. Among them were reports of subtitle typos in all EU language versions and buggy triggers for background music in some cutscenes in the MGS3 remaster. An unspecified visual effect also faced a timing delay, potentially impacting the first two MGS games. The PC remasters lacked the option to choose between windowed and full-screen modes, and Metal Gear Solid 2 has slowdown issues in specific cutscenes.
On November 14, Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 received an update version 1.3.0, addressing various issues. In Metal Gear Solid, save functionality improvements were made for Steam users, along with updates to the online manual and resolution of minor issues. Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty‘s Master Collection version tackled issues such as the “Damaged File” error on Steam, frame rate drops on Nintendo Switch, and video playback interruptions on Xbox Series X/S. Additionally, a specific problem for Japanese users on Xbox Series X/S and Steam was resolved, ensuring the correct opening video was played.
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater‘s Master Collection Version addressed button functionality concerns, audio synchronization issues in certain videos, and flickering in cutscenes on Nintendo Switch. For Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake, the update focused on refining the online manual and fixing minor issues. The bonus content in Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 also received attention, with updates to the online manual and resolution of minor issues.
The latest patch notes for Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 also acknowledge ongoing investigations into several issues. Metal Gear Solid faces intermittent cutscene playback problems, while Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty deals with display issues and occasional problems unlocking trophies or achievements on PlayStation and Xbox Series X/S. In Snake Eater, problems include a lower-resolution display of some face paints, intermittent trophy unlocking on PlayStation, and the Xbox Series X/S mic audio saving issue. Meanwhile, Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake are actively facing occasional trophy-unlocking issues on PlayStation 4. This underscores the developers’ commitment to refining the game and enhancing the player experience.
