Konami is preparing to reinstate the Metal Gear games it temporarily removed from sale as the series celebrates its 35th anniversary.

As reported by VGC, Konami's Japanese Twitter account posted to commemorate the anniversary and announced that fans, seemingly soon, will once again be able to play the temporarily suspended entries.

"The Metal Gear series, released on July 13, 1987, celebrated its 35th anniversary today," it said. "We are preparing to resume sales of titles that have been temporarily suspended."

This could refer to the versions of Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3 that were removed from digital storefronts last November following license renewal issues.
