Takin' on the Shagohod

"Takin' on the Shagohod" is an instrumental musical theme in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, composed by Norihiko Hibino. As indicated by the name, it was used as the boss theme for the Shagohod, both during the standard boss fight and the portion of the fight where Colonel Volgin fused with its wiring.

A remixed version of the theme can be found in the Pachislot version, called "KPE Arrange".

It was also one of the starting songs included on the iPod in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots.

Instrumental bars from the song were later heard in the Tank Battle Phase One.

The song is also unlockable in Metal Gear Survive, or more specifically, during the April 10-24 "The Encounter: Begin 1964 Event!" episode, by exchanging 1000 BP.
