A cuddly Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain cosplay transforms a fan's adorable dog into DD. The 2015 title concluded the espionage action saga by bringing it full circle, with creator Hideo Kojima leaving publisher Konami before the game's launch. In the past fans have recreated Snake's prosthetic arm from Metal Gear Solid 5, and now a courageous canine has assumed the role of beloved Buddy D-Dog.
As the epic finale of the Metal Gear franchise, MGSV overhauls the franchise's signature stealth gameplay to simulate realistic military operations. Players can meticulously plan the infiltration of heavily-guarded compounds, with a wide range of weapons and tools aiding them on their open-world missions. Various Buddies are also available, with each one possessing unique abilities that can prove invaluable to protagonist Venom Snake. The mechanical D-Walker is a mobile weapons platform, while the aptly-named D-Horse allows for fast travel across the map. D-Dog is a particularly beloved canine companion, but Metal Gear Solid V's Quiet is perhaps the most renowned Buddy due to her supernatural sniping prowess.
