At the same time, I wanted to do something new that wasn’t “Death Stranding,” so I teamed up with Microsoft to create “O.D.” This is a game, but it’s a game like no other. I […]

Those dark days when it looked like survival […]

Moreover, Kojima said the Japanese voiceover recording for Death Stranding 2 will begin in 2024. At the same time, his studio […]
