Shadow Moses Island

Shadow Moses Island as seen in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Shadow Moses Island is a stage in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate . It is a Metal Gear themed stage developed by the crew at Konami's Kojima Studios. Solid Snake was unlockable there in both games. The walls on the left and right of this stage can be destroyed, and every so often a Metal Gear from the games will appear on the stage, although they do little more than distract. The three Metal Gears that appear are Metal Gear REX, Metal Gear RAY, and the Gekkos. In addition, a searchlight occasionally appears, and when a character is caught in them the distinctive ! from when a guard is alerted to Snake appears above their head.

Origin[]

Shadow Moses Island is a location in Alaska found in the Metal Gear series, first appearing in Metal Gear Solid for the PlayStation (notably it also appeared in the remake Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes for the GameCube). In Brawl, the Helipad area from the games appears as the stage.

Oftentimes, different Metal Gears from the series will appear in the background, including Metal Gear REX, Metal Gear RAY, and Gekko, the latter appearing in the newest Metal Gear installment Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots for the PlayStation 3. Oftentimes a spotlight will search the stage and if it happens to land on one of the fighters, an explanation point will appear above them just as it did with Snake in the original games.
