Honestly I also thought maybe he is the future self but it just feels odd to me because after he shoots the guy he goes "so you reacted differently from me after all", referring to MC taking the bullet but obviously its because MC wanted to test his healing so it wasnt out of pure good will either But anyways the idea is that if he is the future, he would be one that didnt experience the "present" in other words a form of his consciousness being pulled into the game in 2 different age groups and locations at once, so they coexist but never experienced each others lives
My other real theory is that thats not him, but his "player account", for a while now its been mentioned as a player he has Unicorn Zone as his base, and also the other guy seems to look exactly like his player account while as he is more of a younger self of his real self. So I think thats his player account that came to be from his actions but isnt entirely him
