Players are expecting to hear exactly that in the upcoming title, which - as a remake - will feature the same lines from the original games. This makes Hayter's recent statements all the more mysterious.
Solid Snake will certainly be appearing in Metal Gear Solid: Delta (big surprise). It's confirmed that Konami will re-use recordings from the old game to produce the new title, so players will hear Hayter's voice no matter what.
Everything in Hayter's message hints at a reprisal of his Solid Snake performance, but the lack of specifics has led to exactly what you'd expect. If Konami is recycling old audio, but Hayter is voicing Snake anyway, where are those recordings going?
Could it be for a promotional campaign? Additional tutorial dialogue? Never-before-seen interactions between Snake and other characters? A fan project, not linked to Konami in any way? The mind races with possibilities.
But having a cryptic message here indicates that we probably won't know the details for a while. The existence of a non-disclosure agreement would explain the lack of clarity, and if one existed, we're likely not getting much beyond this from Hayter himself.
For now, fans are sharing their love for Hayter's performances and their excitement at the possibilities. Only time will tell what that adoration will be channeled into.
The last time we saw Hayter's version of Snake in a major role was Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, which came out 14 years ago. Since then, there have been smaller appearances, but nothing quite as grand.
If you've ever heard of the Ford Focus SE (yes, the car), David Hayter actually portrayed Snake in its 2016 ad campaign. This is not a joke, and it is indeed worth watching.
However, aside from appearances like that, David Hayter and Solid Snake have mostly gone their separate ways. This has left fans wanting an actual reprisal, and if they hear fuzzy details through the grapevine, they'll latch on.
That's exactly what we see in response to Hayter's recent statements. It's vague, it's cryptic, and it gives no shortage of hope for fans to see the version of the character they've come to love.
