Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 is a compilation of three classic Metal Gear Solid games: Metal Gear Solid, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. The games have been remastered for current-gen consoles, with improved visuals and performance. 

The collection also includes a number of bonus features, such as the Metal Gear Solid VR Missions and Special Missions, as well as behind-the-scenes content and interviews.

Japan and Hong Kong have different release times for Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 than the other places, and they will also be different depending on console vs PC.

The reason for this is unknown, but it is possible that it is due to different regional regulations or logistical challenges. It is also worth noting that Japan and Hong Kong are two of the largest video game markets in the world, so it is possible that Konami wanted to give these regions special treatment.
