Long before Konami's public falling out with Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima, a mission in Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes set players the task of deleting the logos of Metal Gear games directed by Hideo Kojima.
As spotted by GamesRadar, the Déjà Vu mission requires you to use a UV light to erase the logos of all games crafted under Kojima. If you're successful, the following message appears:

There's also a personal voice message, seemingly from Kojima, thanking the player for "all [their] support".
The discovery of this peculiar foreshadowing comes after we noticed that Hideo Kojima's name was removed from the official Metal Gear Solid 5 box art last week.
Last week, Snake's Japanese voice actor confirmed the closure of Kojima Productions, despite Kojima repeatedly stating he remains committed to Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain until the game's release.
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is set to release on September 1 on PlayStation 4 and 3, Xbox One and 360, and -- at a later date -- on PC. While you patiently wait for launch day, check out these 19 awesome details we noticed about the game.
