This corner of the Metal Gear franchise gathers the games that sit outside Hideo Kojima's numbered stealth saga: the spin-offs, the experiments, and the compilations that repackage the canon. The standout is Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance (2013), built with PlatinumGames, which trades patient sneaking for fast cyborg sword combat and is the clearest sign of how far the brand could stretch from its roots.
The rest documents the series' long afterlife. The Legacy Collection and the later Master Collection bundle the Kojima-directed entries for new hardware, while Metal Gear Survive (2018), the first major release after Kojima's departure, recast the setting as a co-op survival game and landed coldly with players. Together they read as a portrait of a franchise figuring out what it is without its author, sometimes thrillingly, sometimes uneasily.
It is a games-only grouping, but a useful one for seeing where the stealth template bends and where it breaks.
The Spin-offs and Collections franchise spans 4 games in the CrossBinge catalog.
