Acclaimed Game Boy Color Game Returning With New Release

by

I’m so excited! One of my favorite Game Boy Color games, originally released way back in 2000, is officially coming back later this year! It’s been awesome seeing a lot of classic Game Boy games getting a second life recently – some are being completely remade for newer systems, and others, like Mina the Hollower, are trying to capture that same retro feel. But honestly, I never expected this particular game to make a comeback – it’s a total surprise!

Konami recently revealed the upcoming Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2. The highlight of this collection is Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, bringing the complete main Metal Gear Solid series to modern consoles. As a bonus, Konami is also including Metal Gear: Ghost Babel in the bundle.

Okay, so if you haven’t heard of Metal Gear: Ghost Babel – it was released here in North America as just Metal Gear Solid – it came out on the Game Boy Color way back in 2000. The story takes place after the first Metal Gear game, and honestly, the gameplay feels a lot like that original. It’s not officially part of the main Metal Gear storyline, but critics really loved it back in the day. A lot of them even called it one of the best games ever made for the Game Boy or Game Boy Color.

This Is a Big Deal for Game Boy Fans

The re-release of Metal Gear: Ghost Babel is significant news. For the past twenty years, Ghost Babel has been difficult to find, with used copies often selling for around $150. This new release ensures that Metal Gear fans will have much easier access to the game going forward.

You’ll be able to play Ghost Babel when Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 releases on August 27th. It will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch (including the new model), and PC.
