News that the first volume of the upcoming Metal Gear Solid Master Collection wouldn’t support gaming keyboard and mouse inputs understandably dampened hopes of a proper PC port of the Kojima classics. Thankfully, however, feedback from fans about the Metal Gear Solid Master Collection has prompted Konami to partly rethink its peripheral plans.
During a recent Konami press event, we got to play the Switch version of the entire collection and speak to Céline Combelles, senior brand manager for Metal Gear Solid at Konami, about the PC version specifically. During our conversation, she mentioned that due to fan requests following the previous announcement of no MGS keyboard support, the team is now trying to integrate mouse and keyboard controls in some way for all games in the collection.
Considering it’s coming to steam there’s a pretty good chance it’ll work with proton.
I’m cautiously optimistic about this and will wait for reviews before looking to pick it up to play on the deck.
