The story follows the infiltration mission that would later be known as “the Shadow Moses Incident”.

Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty

This game depicts two different events: Solid Snake investigating a new kind of Metal Gear as part of the Tanker Incident, as well as FOXHOUND’s newest member, Raiden, taking on a group of terrorists who have captured an off-shore facility in the Big Shell Incident. This game, released on the PlayStation 2, introduced players to the character of Raiden, who inherited many techniques and ideas from Solid Snake.

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater

The story tells the beginning of the epic saga. It covers the events of both Virtuous Mission and Operation Snake Eater, detailing how the man code-named Naked Snake earned the title of Big Boss.

This title was the fifth game released in the official history of the franchise.
