There is only one acceptable reason to change the VA of the main character in a recurring series: The VA dies.

Next Kojima is going to announce that Snake has just 24 hours to stop Metal Gear

Wait for it.....you'll get it

I think that were being trolled.

In the trailer we got before, in the burning hospital... It was clearly Kiefer voicing Ismael. The guy who was following him was clearly Snake.

Were being trolled guys. Wait for the proper trailer. Kojima be trollin'

I'm really used to Hayter's voice, but I'm not too bothered by this. Kiefer Sutherland is great.

No idea who the new guy is, so wait to see how he does as snake.

Like our interest wasn't down after whatever happened in MGS4. What happened in the end of MGS4 anyways.

Now that you mention it... the whole MGS5 scene in the pre E3 show was kinda odd.

"I'm not a gamer and I knew who Snake was. And Iwas all aboard." Summarizing a quote from Sutherland.

and the smirks on him and Kojima's faces was like they were having a blast. The smirk you get when you know something is complete bs.

I think this is another troll honestly

Wish it was true and hope it is but doubt it

Best MGS game ever if true. Kiefers voice is godly.

I'm OK with this. Hayter is iconic but his performances were getting worse each game and he lacked a range of registers.

I'm sure I'll get used to it quickly.
