Character Description
Gray Fox is his codename as an operative. His real name is Frank Jaeger. He was a war buddy of Solid Snake until he revealed his true position in Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake as one of Big Boss's men. He was killed later in the game at the hands of Snake, but later revived in a genetic DNA test prior to Metal Gear Solid as the Cyborg Ninja. As the Ninja, he sought a final battle with Snake while cutting down everyone who stood in his way. Near the end of Metal Gear Solid, Gray Fox sacrifices his life for Snake and is crushed to death by Metal Gear REX which was being operated by Liquid Snake.

His attack involves moving quickly around the stage and swinging his sword, with his swings capable of reflecting projectile attacks. If he falls off a stage, he can come back from the top. He can also teleport from anywhere in the stage and come back from the top. (comfirmation needed)

Trivia
- When summoned from an Assist Trophy, he will call out "Make me feel alive again!" or "You can't defeat me with a weapon like that." or "Hand-to-hand. It is the basis of all combat." These are actual lines from Metal Gear Solid. He says different things when fighting Snake. Whenever Gray Fox is summoned while Snake is on the battlefield (regardless of whether Snake or the opponent summons him), he says "Like old times, Snake..." or "That's it! I've been waiting for this pain.".
- Gray Fox is voiced by Rob Paulsen in this appearance, with his voice samples lifted directly from The Twin Snakes; in the Japanese version, he uses archived sounds from Kaneto Shiozawa, his actor in Metal Gear Solid, who died in the year 2000.
