Because the Metal Gear franchise was produced by Konami, a Moai statue makes a frequent cameo in some of the games: In Metal Gear Solid, the Moai statue can be found in basement 2 of the warhead storage building. In Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, the Moai statue can be found in various locations on the Big Shell during the Big Shell chapter, one of which requires that the player play in Extreme mode.
