Like Solid Snake stealthily escaping Shadow Moses, Epic snuck out Metal Gear’s famous sidekick Raiden as part of the V28.10 update.
The Raiden currently available to buy in Fortnite is the version of the character from Metal Gear Solid 2, not, as some had wondered (hoped?), from the more recent and eternally memed Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance.
You can catch Fortnite's Raiden working with Snake in the video below:
And while you can choose to play as Raiden with his helmet on or off, Fortnite does not include a naked Raiden skin, unfortunately. Still, that hasn’t dampened some of the… enthusiastic reaction to Raiden’s Fortnite incarnation, with fans pointing out he looks ever so slightly different in the waist and, ahem, bulge department. Perhaps Raiden shouldn’t complain, given Epic stripped Solid Snake of his epic ass.

Me explaining why Raiden’s fertile hips are necessary to his character and mgs2 as whole and how it is a disservice for Fortnite not have them and shows the devs did not properly do their research pic.twitter.com/L3htwXY4cT

There's 2 reactions to Raiden getting added to Fortnite
People happy it isn't MGR Raiden
People upset it isn't MGR Raiden
I've never seen reactions like this to a skin before it's basically this GIF https://t.co/i0Zzoo7Nrf pic.twitter.com/tNYKqrLGHY

I will be on my deathbed in like 55 years and still be forever grateful that Fortnite added Metal Gear Solid 2 Raiden instead of Metal Gear Rising https://t.co/1YjwlOwfgl

Perhaps Raiden skins from Metal Gear Solid 4 and Rising: Revengeance will come at a later date. Until then, Fortnite players can rekindle memories of PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, now Raiden is in the mix.
With Raiden being added to Fortnite you can now officially have a full squad of characters from PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale https://t.co/agqLwVw2uB pic.twitter.com/a6QRhMlhto
