It took a modder just hours to add 4K support to the Metal Gear Solid collection

MGS 3 4K


In what may be a land speed record for highlighting the inadequacy of a PC port, modder Serge has published a small tool for the new Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection ports that enables them to run at 4K or other resolutions. Despite Konami’s confusing claims over the last few months, players learned today that the emulated HD remasters of Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3 both render at 720p on PC, which makes for a particularly blurry picture on higher resolution 1440p or 4K monitors. This mod, which was released approximately 10 hours after the games unlocked on Steam, fixes that. It is 64.5 kilobytes.

I tested the MGSResolutionPatch in the opening minutes of Metal Gear Solid 3, setting the game to render at 3840×2160 (4K). The difference in image quality is stark.
