Metal Gear Solid 2’s source code has been leaked on 4chan

《合金装备2》源代码在 4chan 上遭到泄露

It’s always an exciting day when a beloved video game’s source code leaks on to the internet. We’ve seen such tremendous good times with projects like Ship of Harkinian, for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, bringing fresh coats of paint and incredible mods galore to timeless works of art. 每当一款备受喜爱的电子游戏源代码泄露到互联网上时，总会引起一阵轰动。我们曾见证过像《塞尔达传说：时之笛》的“Ship of Harkinian”项目所带来的巨大成功，它为这些永恒的艺术作品注入了全新的活力，并带来了海量令人惊叹的模组。

If you just so happen to have dreamed big for Metal Gear Solid 2 modding, the world may now be your oyster, as the full source code just hit the net. It’s not the original PlayStation 2 version, but rather, the 2011 HD remaster, so hey. It even comes in (relatively!) crisp 720p. These are, I’ve seen it said, uncompressed assets, including a whopping 30 gigs’ worth of unused material. 如果你曾对《合金装备2》的模组制作怀揣宏大梦想，那么现在机会来了，因为该游戏的完整源代码刚刚在网上流出。这并非最初的 PlayStation 2 版本，而是 2011 年的高清重制版，不过也还不错。它甚至以（相对！）清晰的 720p 分辨率呈现。据我所见，这些是未经压缩的资源，其中包含了高达 30GB 的未使用素材。

If Only It Happened A Single Day Sooner May 1, 2026. That is, as of this writing, today. Would that this had occured on April 30. MGS2 fans know exactly what I’m on about. But I digress—let’s dig in. 要是能早一天发生就好了。2026 年 5 月 1 日，也就是本文撰写之时。如果这件事发生在 4 月 30 日该多好。《合金装备2》的粉丝们一定明白我在说什么。不过跑题了，让我们深入了解一下。

This is actually the PlayStation Vita and Xbox 360 ports’ code, from what I’m reading right now, specifically from work done by support studio Armature. For most of us, Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Volume 1 is still the way to go for MGS2, but once the ball gets rolling on decompiling the code, who knows what the future might bring? 根据我目前掌握的信息，这实际上是 PlayStation Vita 和 Xbox 360 移植版的代码，具体是由支持工作室 Armature 完成的工作。对于我们大多数人来说，《合金装备：大师合集 第一卷》仍然是体验《合金装备2》的首选方式，但一旦代码反编译工作开始，谁又能预知未来会带来什么呢？

I’m still in the process of verifying certain details here. Kotaku, for instance, is reporting that this is actually devoid of assets, which runs quite contrary to the above tweet. Even if it’s “just” the code, however, this remains a tremendous milestone for games preservation and for the modding scene for years to come. 我目前仍在核实某些细节。例如，Kotaku 报道称其中并不包含资源文件，这与上述推文的内容大相径庭。然而，即便这“仅仅”是代码，对于游戏保存和未来多年的模组社区来说，这仍然是一个巨大的里程碑。

As for where this leak took place, the answer’s 4chan; I won’t link directly to either of the pertinent threads on there, but the Kotaku article has been gracious enough to do so for us. 至于这次泄露发生在哪里，答案是 4chan；我不会直接提供该网站上相关帖子的链接，但 Kotaku 的文章已经很贴心地为我们提供了。

As there is conflicting information right now concerning the exact details of the leak’s contents, this article may be updated further before day’s end. Regardless, it’s a pretty good time to be a Metal Gear fan. 由于目前关于泄露内容的具体细节存在相互矛盾的信息，本文可能会在今天结束前进行进一步更新。无论如何，对于《合金装备》的粉丝来说，这都是一个相当值得关注的时刻。
