A remaster compilation of iconic stealth games by Konami. Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 is composed of Metal Gear, Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake, Metal Gear Solid, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater.
Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 is a remaster compilation of three iconic Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. The compilation was developed and published by Konami, the owners of the IP.
The games included in Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 tell the stories of a special operative infiltrating enemy bases, discovering their secrets and foiling their plans.
Metal Gear Solid stars Solid Snake, infiltrating Shadow Moses island in Alaska after it was taken over by FOXHOUND, a rogue special forces unit, tasked with bringing an end to their occupation before things get out of hand. Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty begins aboard a tanker ship transporting a mech capable of launching nuclear missiles, afterwards shifting to a marine decontamination facility. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is set in the Soviet Union, where Naked Snake must survive in a jungle and stop the communists from winning the Cold War.
All games included in Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 make use of the third-person perspective (TPP). The player must be stealthy, sneaking behind enemies or taking them by surprise. The third game significantly expanded the stealth aspect, letting us hide among dense vegetation or use different kinds of camouflage. Each game revolves around completing missions and facing enemies, who can be eliminated via firearms and various gadgets. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater also introduces some survival elements; the protagonist suffers realistic injuries and must eat regularly.
The games included inMetal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 haven't had their visuals upgraded much; instead they were adapted to widescreen resolutions.

Game Ratings for Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 Video Game.
PlayStation LifeStyle: 8 / 10 by Michael Leri
Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 does not have everything that a modern collection should have. Its inability to ubiquitously implement modern features like save states and rewinding only keeps players from fully celebrating the history this compilation seems intent on celebrating. But the extras paint a decent portrait of its accomplishments by delving deep into its lore and speaking to almost every entry’s significance within the medium. And even though the actual games haven’t seen many improvements, they are still unique marvels generations later that lovingly balance quirky jokes and deadly serious diatribes about nuclear proliferation. The bundle largely captures what makes the franchise so beloved, even if some useful quality-of-life features have sneaked on by it.
God is a Geek: 9.5 / 10 by Chris White
Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 is a staggering piece of history that further cements the impact of Snake's legacy in gaming.
Push Square: 8 / 10 by Liam Croft
The Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection bundles together three of the greatest games ever made, but does so in a convoluted manner. Spread across five separate apps on PS5, it can be a challenge to locate the specific version or the bonus feature you need. The digital packaging surrounding the three classics doesn't quite feel like the labour of love it should do, but once you sink into the PS1 original, Sons of Liberty, or Snake Eater, it's abundantly clear there's still nothing quite like Metal Gear Solid. Konami's Master Collection gets by on the ever-lasting quality of its fallen series, not the means that have brought it back.
