: Peace Walker Project: He oversaw the development of the AI weapons (Pupa, Chrysalis, Cocoon, and Peace Walker) to remove the "human element" from nuclear deterrence. Operation Peace Walker: He orchestrated a fake nuclear launch against the United States to prove his AI system worked, nearly triggering a real global nuclear war. Connection to Big Boss: He manipulated Big Boss (Naked Snake) into the Costa Rican conflict, using the "Ghost of The Boss" (an AI recreation of Snake's mentor) to test his machine's capabilities. Legacy in the Franchise While he only appears in Peace Walker , Coldman is considered one of the three "overarching antagonists" of the Big Boss era alongside Zero and Skull Face. His actions directly led to the formation of Mother Base and the rise of Big Boss's private military, which eventually evolves into the Outer Heaven seen in later games.

Fans still joke that "Hot Coldman" sounds like a rejected superhero or a malfunctioning thermostat. But beneath the silly name is one of Metal Gear 's darkest themes: how ideology can override humanity — a man so "cold" he'd sacrifice millions, and so "hot" with conviction he thinks he's right.
Though introduced in the 1970s-set Peace Walker , Coldman's impact on the series began a decade earlier. He is retroactively established as the who planned Operation Snake Eater in 1964. He orchestrated the death of The Boss , viewing her heroic ideals as "bankrupt" and believing that the age of heroes had to end for a new era of "law and order" to begin.
