The well-received Metal Gear Solid HD Collection is making its way to the PlayStation Vita this summer, sans Peace Walker; the original PSP game can be purchased on the PlayStation Store, although not through the Vita, weirdly. However, it will include touch controls specific to Sony’s new handheld. Konami brand manager Kevin Vlaming walked me through the experience, and I recorded the demo for you all to watch above.
For those who own MGS 2 or MGS 3 on PS3, the Vita HD Collection also lets you “transfar” content from save games. And it includes all the other content that was present on the console HD Collection — the Substance and Subsistence stuff, as well as the first two Metal Gear MSX games.
The MGS HD Collection launches for the Vita in Japan on June 28. There’s no American release date yet, but it’s set for release here this summer.
