Presenting the Play Arts Kai version of Quiet from the Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain video game.Quiet - a sniper deprived of her words (She's mute) - will be one of the playable characters in the latest installment of Metal Gear Solid V (The Phantom Pain) which will be released in September of this year. Quiet's motion capture and general appearance is based upon Dutch born Japanese model and actress Stefanie Joosten.
Quiet is the subject of much controversy for obvious reasons. Even Ms. Joosten was surprised by her lack of clothing. Quiet and Metal Gear's creator Hideo Kojima was quoted as saying "I know there's people concerning about 'Quiet' but don't worry. I created her character as an antithesis to the women characters appeared in the past fighting game who are excessively exposed. 'Quiet' who doesn't have a word will be teased in the story as well. But once you recognize the secret reason for her exposure, you will feel ashamed of your words & deeds. The response of 'Quiet' disclosure few days ago incited by the net is exactly what 'MGSV' itself is."
This of course sparked the rumor that Quiet is actually the character Chico having undergone a sex change following the death of Paz Ortega Andrade.
Stefanie Joosten has since dismissed this theory.
