Silent Hills Ghost Easter Egg

The Lisa ghost from Silent Hills, aka the PS4’s P.T. demo, can be used as an Active Decoy balloon in Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain.

It will become available to you in-game once you’ve expanded your Mother Base with an R&D platform that in turn has advanced enough to develop & upgrade this ghostly Decoy.

Silent Hill Radio Easter Egg

The strange occurrence of events in the Silent Hill series is described in a radio crime news report in the Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain campaign.

This can be found at a barrel fire-lit campsite in a tent with a radio inside during the “Locate and rescue Shabani” mission in the Angola-Zaire Border Region of Ngumba Industrial Zone (North Top).

After completing the “Ground Zeroes” Main Mission, you’ll unlock Side Ops missions. Go play the “Intel Operative Rescue” Side Ops and upon completion Big Boss finds out the Intel Team agent VIP he rescued is actually the Metal Gear series creator Hideo Kojima!

After getting him, you’ll have to exported your Ground Zeroes save file from that game’s main menu, and then imported that save file into The Phantom Pain via this game’s main menu as well.

He then eventually arrives at Mother Base in The Phantom Pain as a “special volunteer” and can be recruited as worker with a specialty in Intel (S-Rank rating) and further skills in Research & Development (A+ rank).
