My guess is that Skull Face and XOF fished up ZEKE after Chico spilled the beans on it being in the ocean. Remember that MSF made modifications to ZEKE before the "nuclear inspection" so that it could be safely submerged underwater. Perhaps the REX-like Metal Gear we see in the e3 2014 trailer is ZEKE with these modifications plus modifications made by XOF using the technological advances made during the 9 years Big Boss was out of commission. Remember that the Patriots have access to Granins original designs, and a lot of technological progress has been made since Peace Walker/Ground Zeroes. It could be that ZEKE has been heavily modified by XOF using Granins designs, making it one step closer to REX (Granins ultimate vision truly realized).
