News that the first volume of the Metal Gear Solid Master Collection wouldn't Metal Gear Solid Master Collection has prompted Konami to partly rethink its peripheral plans.
During a recent Konami press event, we got to play the Switch version of the entire collection and speak to Céline Combelles, senior brand manager for Metal Gear Solid at Konami, about the PC version specifically. During our conversation, she mentioned that due to fan requests following the previous announcement of no MGS keyboard , the team is now trying to integrate mouse and keyboard controls in some way for all games in the collection.
PCGamesN reached out to Konami for an official statement on the issue, which expands on these comments with specifics we can now share with you. However, it stresses that this is a work in progress and that we'll hopefully receive an update closer to launch.
Metal Gear Solid, as well as the MSX and NES games, will only receive keyboard , as these are either 2D games or barely use a first-person mode. Metal Gear Solid 2 will primarily get keyboard controls but with some mouse . Metal Gear Solid 3 is the only game in the collection that will have keyboard and mouse .
This is good news for those wishing to play the bundle with a keyboard and mouse as it means they don't need to splash out on a compatible best PC games of this year.
