Snake is a world-renowned soldier and infiltrator. Formerly affiliated with the CIA's FOX unit, Snake is now a mercenary commander with a following of fanatically-loyal soldiers organized into the unit Militaires Sans Frontieres (MSF). In the 1960s, he was sent into Soviet territory to assassinate his mentor The Boss, averting global thermonuclear war. After the completion of this "Operation Snake Eater" and saving the world, Snake became known among soldiers and mercenaries in the West and East as "Big Boss." | Snake is a world-renowned soldier and infiltrator.

"Kaz" is Snake's best friend and right-hand man. Whereas Snake presents MSF with a vision, Kaz minds the details toward making that vision happen.

Kaz is friendly, flirtatious, well-read, and has a brilliant for business. His capabilities will help grow MSF into a force to change the world. He seems to be the one Snake trusts with mission control, offering Snake advice and command over the radio while Snake is in the field. | "Kaz" is Snake's best friend and right-hand man.

Ricardo "Chico" Valenciano Libre is the youngest child of the Sandinista Comandante and a child soldier. He frequently clashes with his elder sister Amanda over his right to prosecute ''la revolución'' despite being only twelve years old. Their fights frequently drive him to run away.

A birder from Paris who came to Costa Rica to observe the resplendent quetzal in its natural habitat, Cécile found herself captured and imprisoned by Dr. Strangelove for getting too close to the latter's laboratory. She was the one who recorded the voice of The Boss, which ultimately spurred Snake into accepting Paz's and Gálvez's mission. As an expert in ornithology, Cécile's knowledge will become instrumental in solving a puzzle during one of the game's missions. To a Japanese speaker, the phonetics of her full name sound like the words that translate into the phrase "Kojima is God." | A birder from Paris who came to Costa Rica to observe the resplendent quetzal in its natural habitat, Cécile found herself captured and imprisoned by Dr. Strangelove for getting too close to the latter's laboratory.

==Huey Emmerich== | ==Huey Emmerich== | ||
A roboticist in the employ of Hot Coldman and the Peace Walker project. Unable to walk himself, he is fascinated with the mechanics of bipedal motion and applied those mechanics to an unknown new weapon in development in Costa Rica. However, his motives seem pure; he's more interested in creating a nuclear deterrent that would rule out human error. He develops severe misgivings when he learns of Coldman's plans with Peace Walker. | |||

==Dr. Strangelove== | ==Dr. Strangelove== | ||
An AI scientist in the employ of Hot Coldman and the Peace Walker project. She is responsible for the creation of the electronic brains that control of the unmanned weapons Chrysalis, Pupa, Cocoon, and Peace Walker itself. She is also interested in the capture of Snake to further her wish to understand The Boss's will. She is more interested in the potential of electronic minds rather than the potential of mankind. | |||

Coldman is the CIA Station Chief in Latin America, shunted there from Langley after a falling out with the DCI. He personally oversees the development of the Peace Walker Project in a laboratory in Costa Rica. He is responsible for the operations of the armed group, the Peace Sentinel, in Costa Rica. He believes nuclear deterrence is based on the flawed logic that human beings would not necessarily retaliate against a nuclear strike and will go to any length to prove his theory. By all appearances, Coldman is the story's antagonist. | Coldman is the CIA Station Chief in Latin America, shunted there from Langley after a falling out with the DCI.
