A new rumor suggests Konami may be preparing a third installment of the Metal Gear Solid Master Collection series. According to the report, the collection could include Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance as a modern port and Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain with versions updated for current-generation consoles — reportedly released "without any cut content."

Important: the information was mentioned by Jordan Middler, a journalist for VGC, during The Nextlander Podcast. Middler framed the item as hearsay rather than confirmed insider reporting, saying someone had told him about it, so the claim should be treated as an unverified rumor.

For context, Konami released Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 2 at the end of August on PC and consoles; that collection features Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker (HD Collection version), a digital soundtrack, and Metal Gear: Ghost Babel. The original Master Collection, which combined five games from the series, arrived in 2023.
