If you want to playMetal Gear Solid’s Master Collection - which willbring MGS3: Snake Eater to PC for the first time- when it releases this autumn, you’ll need to have a controller.That’s what it looks like, anyway, after the Steam pages for Master Collection versions of Metal Gear Solid 1, 2 and 3 recently went live before being quickly pulled minutes later - but not before Twitter userLordEmmerichmanaged to grab some screenshots. (Thanks for the spot,PCGamesN.)No Keyboard controls it seem. Ahhh…Well It doesn’t bother me but it probably will bother a few.https://t.co/3mZ7qkaueDpic.twitter.com/PrZv5Iljp3— LordEmmerich (@LordEmmerich)June 21, 2023To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settingsThe since-vanished Steam pages for the first three entries in Hideo Kojima’s sneaky-shooty series all featured a prominent warning at the top of the page stating clearly that the games will “[require] a controller in order to play. Playing with a keyboard and mouse isn’t supported.”This might come as somewhat of a surprise, given that the previous PC ports of Metal Gear Solid and Sons of Liberty - which werere-released via GOG a few years ago, beforebeing pulled againdue to licensing problems - both supported keyboard and mouse controls. However, these new portswill be based on the console-only HD Collection from 2011, potentially resulting in the control changes.METAL GEAR SOLID: MASTER COLLECTION Vol.1 | Gameplay and Platforms Reveal | ESRBWatch on YouTubeWere the pages pulled to correct the control options available when the Master Collection launches in October?
