This distinction matters because “three games included” can suggest Ghost Babel has the same packaging and feature scope as MGS4 and Peace Walker. Konami calls it digital bonus content. The MGS4 Database is also tied to MGS4 rather than a separate playable title.
Master Collection Vol. 1 is not part of Vol. 2. Existing Vol. 1 save data may unlock bonus items in MGS4 and Peace Walker, but that is a recognition reward, not bundled ownership. The bonus and save-data page keeps those two reward paths separate.
