Iconic Metal Gear Solid voice actor David Hayter has set the Metal Gear fandom ablaze with a tweet teasing his return to a role he hasn’t played in years. The tweet, which included the line “I was in the booth today. Playing a role I’ve not played, since…” followed by a gif of Big Boss from the upcoming Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater remake, has fans speculating about the possible return of the legendary character.
Hayter’s vague tweet has left fans confused and excited, especially with the upcoming Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater remake set to release later this year. While Konami previously announced that the remake would reuse original voice lines, some wonder if Hayter’s involvement could hint at something new being recorded for the game.
Others in the Metal Gear community have taken the tweet as a possible tease for a brand new installment in the series, potentially Metal Gear Solid 6. While Konami has made no official announcements regarding a new entry, the speculation has taken on a life of its own, with fans flooding social media with their theories.
Whether Hayter’s tweet is tied to Snake Eater or something more, the tease has ignited excitement among Metal Gear fans eager for any news about the beloved franchise.
