Lt. Solid Snake
- Field Promotion: Unlike in the canonical sequels, Solid Snake stayed on FOXHOUND, and was apparently promoted to Lieutenant for his actions in Outer Heaven.
- Highly-Conspicuous Uniform: He infiltrates a jungle dressed entirely in orange.
- Sleeves Are for Wimps: The character sprite (both in overhead and side view segments) depict Snake wearing a tank top.
Jennifer
- Damsel in Distress: Her cover ended up blown by the enemy personnel, resulting in her capture.
Big Boss
- Adaptational Villainy: He does not have the redeeming qualities of his canon counterpart.
- Robotic Reveal: Big Boss wants revenge on Snake for inflicting him with injuries severe enough to force him to become a cyborg.
- One-Winged Angel: Becomes a giant purple robot after his first defeat.
Nick Myers
- Black Dude Dies First: He is the only one of Snake's two allies who is confirmed dead by the end of the game. (John's fate is left ambiguous)
- Token Minority: The only black guy among the FOXHOUND team deployed to Operation 747.
John Turner
- Trojan Prisoner: He allows himself to be captured in order to lessen security on the base enough for Snake to infiltrate. Unfortunately, he ends up being replaced with an imposter shortly thereafter.
- "What Now?" Ending: He is kidnapped by the enemy early in the mission and replaced by an imposter who tries to gain Snake's trust. Whether the real John died is left uncertain.
Helicopter Pilot
- No Name Given: The only one of Snake's radio contacts who is never named.
