With the release of its latest update, Epic Games pleasantly surprised Fortnite players by introducing Raiden, the renowned sidekick from Metal Gear, alongside Solid Snake. It’s important to note, however, that the Raiden featured in Fortnite is the version from Metal Gear Solid 2, not the more recent Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance.
Players now have the chance to embody Raiden in the game, though it’s worth mentioning that there is no skin depicting a bare-chested Raiden. Despite this revealed limitation, fans are expressing their excitement about Raiden’s inclusion. Witnesses have noted slight alterations in Raiden’s appearance, particularly in the waist and bulge areas. Meanwhile, it appears that Epic Games has not included the famously iconic posterior of Solid Snake in this Fortnite crossover.
With Metal Gear Solid 2 currently in the spotlight, fans are hopeful that future updates will introduce skins from Metal Gear Solid 4 and Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. Until then, gaming enthusiasts can relish in the nostalgic vibes of Raiden in Fortnite, reminiscent of PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale.
For those curious about Raiden’s Fortnite debut, a video showcasing the collaboration with Solid Snake is available. Excitement and anticipation surround potential additions to Raiden’s character in upcoming updates. Stay tuned for more updates about the Fortnite Universe.
