In
the aftermath of the Second World War, the world was torn in two between East
and West. It was the beginning of a new era - the Cold War.
October
16, 1962. The President of the United States received word that the Soviet Union
had deployed nuclear missiles in Cuba. The world trembled in fear as the prospect
of nuclear war loomed ever closer. After days of tense negotiations, the Soviets
finally agreed on the 28th to withdraw their missiles from Cuban soil. With
the resolution of this incident, later to be known as the Cuban Missile Crisis,
it seemed that humanity had survived yet another threat to its existence.
However,
there was a secret condition in the deal that put an end to the crisis. Nikolai
Stepanovich Sokolov, a Soviet scientist who had defected to the West, was to
be sent back to the Soviet Union. The U.S. government agreed to this stipulation,
and returned Sokolov to his native land. Little did they know that Sokolov was
to be the designer of a nightmarish weapon. Now, with Sokolov back in their
hands, the Soviets are ready to resume its development. If this weapon is completed,
it will mark the beginning of a new age of fear.
August 1964. Realizing at last the urgency of the situation, the CIA forms a
plan to recapture Sokolov. They dispatch the covert FOX unit to Sokolov's research
facility, located to the south of the great Soviet fortress of Groznyj Grad.
Led by former SAS member Major Zero, FOX is a next-generation special-forces
unit that operates both as a specialized combat group and as a covert intelligence
outfit. The FOX unit's modus operandi is to send a single agent, backed by radio
support from afar, into enemy territory to carry out solo sneaking missions.
August 24. Alone soldier swoops down from out of the blue. The man's code name
is Naked Snake.
