In the Metal Gear series, there are themes in most of the canonical Metal Gear games. These themes play an important part in the game's story. Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima has said that the themes are messages that can be passed on to the next generation. By the end of the game, the themes lead to a conclusion. The Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater official guide by Piggyback speculated that the games overall story carry several implicit parallels to Nietzschean philosophy, specifically Friedrich Nietzsche's "The Eternal Return of the Same."

Kojima also implied twice that, at least until the release of Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes, he intended to question America's role in the world as a theme. In an interview with Famitsu, Kenji Yano explained that one of the themes for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain involved America being the enemy as well as the story's equivalent of the titular whale from Moby-Dick. He also implied that this was ultimately the reason why Big Boss himself portrayed Ishmael and not Huey Emmerich as had originally been intended since the latter would have ultimately been biased towards an American perspective.
