METAL GEAR SOLID 4: Guns of the Patriots - Master Collection Version Keyboard & Controller Controls
Konami's first port of the 2008 PlayStation 3 finale, bundled in Master Collection Vol. 2, follows an aging Old Snake through the proxy wars of a PMC-run battlefield. On PC the stealth kit maps to WASD with Ctrl to walk quietly, Space to change stance, right-click to aim and left-click to shoot or start CQC, while E handles every context action from wall presses to body drags.
