Summary

  • Xbox Series X will run Metal Gear Solid 4 at up to 4K and 60FPS, while Series S is listed at up to 1440p and 60FPS in Konami’s newly posted platform specifications.
  • Konami said those figures are output resolutions rather than native internal rendering targets, and a standalone download of Metal Gear Solid 4 will take about 26GB.
  • Peace Walker is also slated for the same maximum output resolutions on both Xbox consoles, with Original, Adjusted, High Resolution and Custom display modes available.
  • Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol.2 launches on August 27 for £44.98/$49.99, bundling Metal Gear Solid 4, Peace Walker and extras including Metal Gear Ghost Babel.
