  "summary": "Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 has been reviewed, with most reviewers focusing on the return of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. This game was previously only available on the PlayStation 3 and has now been made playable on modern consoles. According to Polygon, it is considered a \"strange, personal, and divisive\" game made by Hideo Kojima.\n\nThe collection also includes Peace Walker and Ghost Babel, which TechRadar describes as a \"deep-cut\" worth playing. TechRadar notes that while the first collection had three main games and several bonus titles, the second collection's focus on Metal Gear Solid 4, Peace Walker, and Ghost Babel is a fair trade. Creative Bloq comments that games as \"gloriously excessive\" as those in the collection are no longer common.\n\nThe games in the collection are available on multiple platforms, including PS5, PC, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. According to TechRadar, the port of Metal Gear Solid 4 was once thought to be impossible, but it has been successfully re-released in the Master Collection Vol. 2.",
