As the Metal Gear series celebrates its 35th birthday, Konami has confirmed some very welcome news regarding legacy titles in the series. The publisher has taken to Twitter to reveal its intention of bringing back delisted Metal Gear games, which should include the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection on Xbox.
Back in November of last year, Konami announced that it was "working on renewing the licenses for select historical archive footage" featured within classic Metal Gear titles, which led to the delisting of the HD Collection on Xbox, amongst other storefronts.
At the time, the company stressed that it was doing its upmost to bring the games back ASAP, so it was never their intention to delist them permanently. After eight months or so, it's nice to get confirmation of their intentions, even though we don't have a solid date for any re-listings just yet. Remember, this collection is backwards compatible, so once it returns, it'll be playable on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S as well.
Are you excited to see these come back to the store in the future? Let us know!

@Kaloudz Yes to the first question, no to the second. MGS Collection is fantastic as it was handled by the exceptionally talented Bluepoint Games.
Silent Hill is still botched, but in my opinion the games are perfectly playable if you're unable to access it elsewhere.
@Kaloudz I beat recently both Silent Hill 2 and 3 in my Series S with no serious issues. Yet again I am not the best at spotting those, it has been many years since the launch and I did not remember the games that well.
Man, I just want a rerelease of MGS4, I'm this close to just buy another PS3 for just this game.
@Kaloudz I played it on my one S & didn't notice any issues
Sh23hd is trash. They use alpha version game, not final game.play pc ver. or ps2 emu instead, if u want to play.
K should put Downpour back, even it not good enough though.
Give us a shiny MGS1 remake or remaster.
@Utena-mobile Just wanna point out real quick since most people don't seem to know this— to compensate for the lack of pressure sensitivity in the buttons, you can press the left stick to lower your weapon(And iirc, you press it quickly two times to cut an enemy's throat in MGS3).
It actually kind of makes it easier because you won't accidentally let off the button too fast and shoot someone or press it too hard and accidentally cut someone's throat (^_^;)
