Outside of the main Metal Gear video game series, Solid Snake has also starred in numerous novelizations tied to the franchise and was a playable character in the most recent two Super Smash Bros games.
Not to be confused with his father Big Boss (the other main protagonist of the Metal Gear video games), Solid Snake is a former Green Beret who’s frequently sent on solo stealth and espionage missions, keeping in radio contact with superiors and other allies along the way.
Created by Hideo Kojima for 1987’s Metal Gear, Solid Snake is arguably one of the most well-known video game characters of all time.
