A detailed exploration of the legendary universe of Metal Gear and Metal Gear Solid, the iconic cult video-game saga.
Traveler, welcome to the complete Metal Gear saga. This journey takes us through Outer Heaven, Zanzibar Land, the jungles of Tselinoyarsk in the Soviet Union, and of course, the place where many first discovered the series: Shadow Moses. But we’ll go much further. Hideo Kojima has woven the history of Metal Gear into the history of our own world—year by year, century by century, war by war. This book therefore recounts the entire Metal Gear and Metal Gear Solid saga chronologically, intertwining it with human history to form a narrative stretching from the dawn of time to the present.
What role did the precursors of Cipher play in the colonization of the world? How did The Boss’s bullets influence the outcome of World War II? In what ways has Zero’s technology shaped politics, economics, and humanity itself? Oh traveler, prepare to discover the truth behind a story you thought you already knew—one that will change once you step into the pages of this book.
Before diving into the full lore of the Metal Gear saga, we enter the mind of Hideo Kojima. We uncover the hidden meanings behind his language, his aesthetic values, his white flowers, his whales, his fire, and all the pain carried by his characters: Big Boss, Otacon, Solid Snake, Psycho Mantis…
To conclude our journey, we examine design ideas, world-building principles, and writing insights that enrich the overall experience.
So prepare yourself, traveler. It’s time to uncover the secrets of Shadow Moses and Metal Gear in the definitive book on Hideo Kojima’s most iconic saga.
