Since forming his own independent studio, Hideo Kojima has been rather busy, successfully launching 2019’s Death Stranding with multiple other projects currently in development. One such project is OD – a highly experimental and undoubtedly weird Xbox console exclusive. While we still know very little, Kojima has offered more insight, claiming it to be a “game like no other.”
In an interview conducted by Variety, Kojima spoke on a number of topics including the Death Stranding film and his expansion into Hollywood. In discussing the upcoming and mysterious OD, Kojima had this to say:
“I wanted to do something new that wasn't ‘Death Stranding’, so I teamed up with Microsoft to create ‘OD’ This is a game, but it's a game like no other. I can't go into too much detail, and it's also hard to explain, but it's a bit risky and a new challenge for me within the realm of games.”
Interestingly, the director also offered a very brief update on one of his other projects – the PlayStation exclusive espionage game ‘Physint’, adding:
“There is also another project, ‘Physint’, an espionage game, but it's still in the early concept stage. So first, I created a game IP as an indie company. This part is important, because no one believes me when I tell them I'm indies!”
Kojima is a busy man, with work on Death Stranding 2 undoubtedly taking up most of his time currently. Even so, it is interesting to get a peek into some of the projects that the creator has cooking. We will likely hear more from OD following the release of Death Stranding 2.
