It could be Decoy Octopus. If Kojima is willing to bring back a fan favorite like Psycho Mantis and expand on his history a bit, why not someone like Decoy Octopus whose background is a complete mystery? The bandages Ishmael has matches what Octopus would have from the surgery to transform his face. Who knows, maybe there will be a trademark Kojima twist where the whole game is a simulation set up by the Patriots where you think you're playing as Big Boss, but it ends up being Decoy Octopus impersonating Big Boss! That would suck.
