I would say its Valadmir Zadnornov, surely he died from the wounds at the end of PW.

But the trench coat seems a tad bit familiar, the XOF commader seems charimatic, the red hand augmented onto snakes hand at the end of the trailer does seem familiar to Zadornov's and after the events of PW, it would be clear that he had a grudge against Big Boss.One can. And the facial burns could be explained by an event that occured post-PW.

Or... It could just be a new character.

Actually, I doubt Kojima actually hated that game. Otherwise, he would have gone out of his way to not include it on various timelines, make absolute certain MGS4 didn't even go so far as to show even a single still or utter a single word of the events from the game, and even prevent Kaz from mentioning it. Still, the only one who'd match the description might be Python, and last I checked, he had a cryogenic vest on, which the XOF commander lacked. Technologies advance. Things get streamlined. Not to mention the psudo sicence of this game. They could have come up with a way to fix him, or they invented a more consealed cooling system. Like the outfit perhaps?
