Revolver Ocelot is a recurring character in Konami's Metal Gear series. Throughout the series' continuity, he takes on a variety of roles: a henchman of Liquid Snake, the right-hand man of Solidus Snake, a friendly rival to Big Boss, and a major nemesis to Solid Snake. The character has been well received by video game publications for his role as a central villain in the franchise and has often been considered one of its most important characters for his connections with various characters.
Revolver Ocelot (リボルバー・オセロット, Riborubā Oserotto) is introduced in the video game Metal Gear Solid as a gunslinger-themed member of the FOXHOUND terrorists involved with the hostile revolt on Shadow Moses Island which housed Metal Gear REX, serving as the team's interrogation expert and their leader Liquid Snake's right-hand man. He challenges Solid Snake to a gunfight in the game's first boss encounter, but their fight ends with Ocelot losing his right hand from an encounter with the Cyborg Ninja. Despite his loss, Ocelot later appears to torture Snake after the latter was captured. During Snake's torture, Ocelot reveals he was originally from the former Soviet Union and a former member of Spetsnaz, secretly wishing for Big Boss's dream world as well. Ocelot is the sole surviving FOXHOUND member by the end of the game. After the ending credits, it is revealed that he is in league with the U.S. President George Sears.
