The first volume of Konami’s Metal Gear Solid Collection has been available to play on multiple platforms, including the Nintendo Switch, for almost a couple of years now. Following its launch, Konami had gradually released updates that polished the collection and its individual games, as well as fixing various bugs that had been discovered since the collection’s release.
In fact, so much has been done to the collection that, compared to how it was at launch, it is like comparing apples and oranges now. So, Digital Foundry decided to re-visit the collection and see how it is today. They were more positive about the current state of the collection, saying that it is “in a much better place with patch 2.0 installed, but the fundamental shortcomings are still frustrating”. They say that a modded PC version of the collection is the best way to play it, and the PlayStation 5 is the best console version of the collection.
