Metal Gear Solid 4 Finally Freed From PS3 as Part of Leaked Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 - IGN

I have no idea what got into Konami over the last few months, but it's giving me hope for the company which is confusing. For years I just assumed I could write off Konami and for years they kept proving me right. The biggest evidence of that was how MGS 2 and 3 got taken off all digital stores because of FMV footage licensing like two years ago. Konami waited months to even address it, and then went radio silent after that. So for years, these games haven't been available without emulation or owning the physical disks.

But now we get the Master Collection which has games you wouldn't even think they would include. Like the NES version of Metal Gear and Snake's Revenge.

Now we're getting word that MGS4 will finally be on modern consoles? Now all they have to do is stick the landing. Bonus points if the fix issues from the Legacy/HD Collection (bugs not spawning right and Snake not shaving in MGS2 and performance issues with MGS3), but I will take a straight up port with no improvements.

Grand Zeroes is necessary to understand the Phantom Pain story, can't imagine they would include one but not the other.

I assume it is like later releases where Ground Zeroes and Phantom Pain are included in one box.
