A Raiden was aided during his fight against the Harrier by Solid Snake who threw supplies out of a helicopter. Raiden later met Peter Stillman, although their meeting occurred awkwardly when Raiden mistook the latter for a bomber at work and held him up, and was tasked alongside Pliskin to freeze the detonators of C4 to ensure they at least weren't an immediate threat. When the Gekko commenced another assault, Snake and Raiden departed the area via a supply tunnel, within the recently reactivated REX. On February 15, 2013, the official Metal Gear Solid and Metal Gear Rising Facebook pages posted that the MGS4 Raiden would be available as a DLC download for the Xbox Live and PlayStation Network networks for releases outside Japan on February 19 (the release date for the American release of Metal Gear Rising), and also specified that it's not a pre-order bonus. Rose even says as much in MGS2. After the Colonel claimed that Rose was being held hostage, Raiden began to fear that Rose didn't exist either, and that all his memories of her might have been falsified. A former child soldier, FOXHOUND member and a close ally of Solid Snake, Raiden has since joined an elite task force known as Maverick in the time period between the events of Metal Gear. One of his training sessions at FOXHOUND was at Fort Polk, within a mock Afghan village. The mention by Colonel on how Raiden completed 300 VR missions only occurs if the player beat the Tanker Chapter immediately prior to the Plant Chapter. Jack and the other members of the Small Boy Unit were forced to kill POWs and civilians. It is at this point that Solid Snake reveals his true identidy and Raiden resumes his mission to rescue the President.

Raiden then met with Snake, who gave him most of his equipment back, along with Olga's high-frequency blade. Blade, Mk23 Because the portion of Denver that World Marshal was at was evacuated, there were a lot of abandoned cars, so Raiden was going to borrow a vehicle. Because of the limited time, they had to undergo ignition without a countdown.

The Metal Gear Solid Facebook page later confirmed that those scenes in the trailers were meant to show Raiden's training under Solidus.[51]. Raiden studied scouting techniques under a Native American shaman living in Alaska, and learned to hunt. Of the canonical main characters, Raiden is the only one who does not have any significant interaction with Revolver Ocelot, as Solid Snake and Ocelot had a massive rivalry for most of their games, Naked Snake and Ocelot were friendly rivals, and Ocelot served under Venom Snake. On March 4, Kojima compared Raiden's characterization to that of action film series hero John Rambo, citing that both characters fight despite being peaceful in nature.[64]. Instead, Armstrong had framed the jihadi rebels for attacking the base itself via Desperado and had the President rerouted back to America. As a cyborg, he also had elevated pieces on his feet, near his heel portion. He also was skilled at being attuned with nature, also known as scouting, which he gave Solid Snake pointers in it when contacting him about in South America. At the beginning of the Big Shell mission, Jack was briefly referred to as "Snake" before his codename was changed to "Raiden" by the Colonel, as the leader of the terrorists was also referring to himself as Solid Snake.

A podcast, however, addressed this issue and stated that the game would explain why Raiden is back on the battlefield despite the implications of Metal Gear Solid 4's ending.[47]. With Maverick unable to identify their affiliations, Boris ordered Raiden to take out the cyborgs. Raiden's childhood trauma still has a significant toll on his mental state, although he repressed some of the memories of the atrocities he comitted. After he found the "will" to destroy Armstrong, all his attack became stronger. Afterwards, he, under the cautions of the Blade Wolf, carefully navigated the cyborg-infested sewers before being ambushed by a Mastiff cyborg. [62] Another update on the official site indicated that the MGS4 Raiden skin would be available via pre-order from Amazon for the Japanese version of Metal Gear Rising. His first missions for Maverick had him working with Kevin Washington, where they were hired by the Carabinieri to track down three Albanian mafiosos that fled Italy for Montenegro, with orders to retrieve them. He then began work on retrieving Big Boss' remains from the Patriots for the Paradise Lost Army, leading to his capture. Upon wiping all of them out, Raiden was extracted and given his payment, with Miller considering meeting him again in the future. Raiden also held some distrust for politicians, feeling that they "[gave] big promises, but [were] all talk," only sought to line their pockets with capital and maintain their approval ratings/votes", and overall had little, if any principles. Raiden's new body was powered by a Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell which needed frequent recharging via Electrolytes extracted from enemy cyborgs during battle. He received a call from George, and he reminded George that he didn't want to kill, and that war isn't fun and games when explaining why he wouldn't let George tag along. Several of Raiden's skills in the game have names referencing thunder and lightning. After undergoing surgery to clear his body of nanomachines and being saved by Drago Pettrovich Madnar, he was successful in reclaiming Big Boss' remains from the Patriots. Another nickname of his was "Jack the Ripper," a pseudonym for an unidentified serial killer in 1888 who was active in the largely impoverished districts in and around Whitechapel, London. Now living a life in the United States, Jack joined the military where his admirable skills were at first recognized by the U.S. Army's Task Force XXI. Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is the second game in which Raiden is the primary player character, although this time the player takes control of Raiden in his Cyborg Ninja appearance. But also this could be a Big Boss parallel and setting up Raiden as a villain.

He also insisted that he keep his pain inhibitors off as he needed it. However, the close proximity to the second drone also caused it to be damaged as well. Raiden then vowed that he was done running, while Rose vowed that she was no longer afraid. Konami kept his starring role a secret right up until the game's release in North America, even going so far as to have his Japanese voice actor swear to secrecy about the role his character would play until the game's release and replacing Raiden with Snake in teaser trailers and other preview materials (although he did appear in a few trailers, in his scuba gear, his presence was not as emphasized as the other characters). One of his failures also had him encountering Colonel Volgin in the prison, referring to his similar appearance to Raikov. I guess when they were putting his body together, they separated his lower jaw from his upper for various reasons (probably to help implant the organic parts .

This was a lie - Raiden's goal was manipulated at every turn by the Patriots and they were using Raiden to remove the threat of Solidus Snake, who wished to destroy them. Raiden then released his Jack the Ripper persona, even going as far as to have his pain inhibitors deactivated to fully unleash it. He's 100% devoted.

Raiden then fell into the cityscape.

They then deduced from Courtney that they could stop the situation at Mach 23 speeds, which would take half an hour to get there, with Raiden requesting that they contact Solis Space & Aeronautics. Raiden was born in Liberia on what he stated was a 'rainy day'.

The final color model was unveiled on the Metal Gear Solid Facebook page at 5:58 PM on August 9, 2012. As Raiden snuck through Arsenal Gear's interior, the Colonel began to act strangely during Codec transmissions. At some point, Raiden, in large part because of his having to utilize a HF Blade late in the Big Shell Incident, became fascinated with the art of Japanese swordsmanship, training himself with the HF Blade and studying in various Japanese swordsmanship and the samurai code, and even going as far as to watch samurai movies. He also speculated that Solidus' role in his life may have been the reason why the Patriots selected him for the S3 Plan. It's just horrible, no matter what kind of awesome magical ninja cyborg he ends up as. Raiden's "father" would also have resembled Solidus. In addition, he also learned from both Boris and Armstrong himself that he currently didn't plan on assassinating the President. After becoming an cyborg, Raiden implied that he would drown if he attempted to swim due to his immense weight. Shortly after Snake defeated the PMC commander Laughing Octopus, Raiden contacted him again to provide help in tracking down Naomi Hunter, using his knowledge of scouting. Even when playing Revengeance, which treats the cyborg bodies as viable and preferable alternatives for a soldier, I couldn't help but imagine the point where Raiden's perfectly healthy body was ripped and discarded down the jaw. Raiden then tracks down the hostages and makes contact with Richard Ames, an agent of the Patriots. He also decided to have Doktor arrive with a transport chopper when he was inside the World Marshal headquarters building so they could carry out all of the cyborg heads.

As Solidus ordered the remaining RAYs to kill Raiden, the virus uploaded into GW went into effect, disabling the RAYs. It was largely because of this cold nature, as well as his pushing people he knew away that resulted in Rosemary initially fearing that he was unfaithful to her. The presence of Raiden in the game was announced to the Japanese press on the same day as the game's release in North America. In this case, it was a reference to his skill and cruelty with a blade, a trait that was ingrained into him by Solidus. A Also you say "George got to Colorado somehow. Raiden then proceeded to jump out to hijack a drone so he could defend the chopper. However, when Dolzaev refused, Raiden deduced from his reply that he was actually intending to blow himself up near a power pylon as his final act, but was unable to stop him in time. [73] The negative reception to the character, as well as his girlfriend Rose having similarly negative reception in the same game, was also given a brief nod in Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance when Solidus summons them, where he described them as an infamous duo whose mere presence was enough to destroy an entire universe and were feared and hated by the universe. He was also willing to break the law if he knew it was morally right to do so, as evidenced by his decision and motives to conduct a corporate raid on World Marshal's headquarters in Denver, Colorado. Non-"Metal Gear Saga" information ends here. Raiden offered his services to Philanthropy, but Snake told him to take care of his personal affairs first. After deciding not to kill Naked Snake, he went back to the events of the Zanzibar Land Disturbance (complete with MSX2 graphics) to kill Solid Snake himself, ending in similar failure, where, ironically, he is stopped by his original target, Big Boss. Tamari also explained that the cybernetic functions (including Fuel Cell energy) was based on research led by the University of Texas, and that they had Raiden lack self-repair units to emphasize his role as a "dark hero."

[37] Although his having dark hair was cut as his standard design, it was retained somewhat with the Infinity Wig unlockable item, which was depicted as a brown wig. After hijacking the drone by impaling his sword in its brain, he told Doktor to turn the chopper around (as it was being tailed by the other drone), which he then did, with Raiden then proceeding to cut down the other drone just as it was passing by him via his sword. Upon finding the facility's entrance, Raiden, taking Doktor's advice of using a DOOMP to access the facility's video records regarding their development, decided to hijack a Dwarf Gekko. Similarly, his appearance also led him to being mistaken for a woman, as evidenced by James Johnson mistaking him for a female Patriot assassin before realizing his mistake by grabbing his crotch and then reacting with slight surprise that Raiden was male. Kojima, regarding the release trailer on February 19, initially intended to use voice clips for Raiden from Metal Gear Solid 2, although he decided against it, as he didn't want to inflict killjoy on the trailer. Because of the similar name, Kojima Productions also gave it the alternate name of Medical Raiden.

He shares this codename with the Mitsubishi J2M Raiden, an Imperial Japanese WWII fighter aircraft, which the Allied forces codenamed "Jack." The giant portrait of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance protagonist Raiden in England has been replaced after seven years. The Gray Fox skin was shown killing Desperado Cyborgs in a manner similar to a scene in Metal Gear Solid, where where he cuts up several terrified Genome Soldiers, while MGS4 Raiden was shown taking on some Desperado Gekko, a reference to his first on-screen appearance in Metal Gear Solid 4, where he took on, and destroyed several Gekko. Under the guidance of Doktor, Raiden honed his new body's blade, developed various attacks against cyborgs, became skilled in tracking, and acquired an enhanced running capability. Rose and Raiden's son are safe in New Zealand. Raiden then learned that Desperado wanted N'mani dead because Africa's been getting "a bit too peaceful" under his reign, as Sundowner wanted to restart the war economy due to feeling that it was his livelihood. He did possess optical implants to a slightly lesser degree prior to the upgrade, which displayed things in a HUD.[32].

The Metal Gear franchise is an undisputed classic. However, throughout his partnership with Wolf, he began to trust him, even telling him that he was free to pursue his own destiny. [50], In the Arm, Eye, and Sword trailers, the scene shifts halfway through to Raiden undergoing some aspects of his harsh childhood under a man whose voice and appearance resembles Solidus Snake. Snake wins the fight easily due to Raiden having terrible CQC skills, sitting in the "Main Character" chair, signalling a chime. After some reassurance from Snake, the pair battled through the Arsenal Tengu commandos before encountering Dead Cell's leader Fortune. Raiden was skilled at cleaning up messes, as he mentioned to the Colonel regarding not leaving stuff lying around at Strut C during the Big Shell Incident. Eventually, as a way to "throw him a bone," he allowed the Blade Wolf to accompany him in his missions as a scout.
