Fortnite’slatest event has brought the likes of Peter Griffin andMetal Gear’slegendary solider Snake to the island for the first time. Most of the changes have been received pretty well, apart from the animation tweaks thata fan doxxed a developer over, but there is one certain feature that Metal Gear fans in particular are up in arms over. Snake has been thoroughly de-caked once again.
Having appeared in multiple spinoff titles in his signature wetsuit, Snake’s cake has been proudly on display ever since his appearance in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. However, it seems as though Snake’s butt keeps getting regularly nerfed whenever he pops up in a new title or movie. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate sanded down Snake’s cheeks to disappointing levels, but Fortnite seems to have made it vanish entirely.
Understandably, Metal Gear fans are completely distraught at Snake’s new lack of cake, joining characters such as Omni-Man who are also running around in skin-tight suits without a single piece of cake between them. For whatever reason, this was a deliberate attack on Snake’s posterior, which is cruel given that he didn’t have much of a butt to begin with after the Smash Bros. Ultimate days.

Thankfully, the rest of Fortnite’s latest update is much more faithful to its other characters, such as Peter Griffin. He may be an absolute beefcake in Fortnite for some reason, but the developers have gone above and beyond to addas many ridiculous references to Family Guy as possible, including the Petercopter, a clip show Back Bling, and a Bird is the Word emote that you can use with every single character.
We’ll have to wait for a new Metal Gear game to see our beloved caked up Snake returned to us, which could happen a lot sooner than we may have expected. While we still don’t have a release date for the Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater remake, voice actor David Hayter has been tweeting some cryptic things recently, with some fans thinkinghe may return to voice Old Snakein the rumored re-release of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots.
