Kojima’s next game, OD (Overdose), brings together a cast of stars that will surprise everyone. Director Jordan Peele (“Get Out, Nope”) will be fully involved in the project.
Hideo Kojima and his teams are working on three games. The highly anticipated Death Stranding 2, a new Metal Gear-style PlayStation exclusive called Physint and a completely different project for Xbox. An exclusive that will be playable via cloud gaming and should take full advantage of this emerging technology. It’s still very mysterious, but from the start the Japanese designer has surrounded himself well.
Big stars in Kojima’s horror game OD (Overdose)
When announcing OD (Overdose) at the Game Awards 2023, Hideo Kojima confirmed that it is indeed a horror game that should make an impression. “OD will explore the boundaries of fear and what it means to overdose on fear as the boundaries and the film blur.”. For this title, the creator turned to Get Out, Us and Nope director Jordan Peele, who, unlike George Miller, will be behind the scenes for DS2.
« Il [Jordan Peele] will participate in OD in creative ways. But I’ll get in trouble if I say more.. Motus and silent therefore, but there is still room for teasing. When he revealed OD, he said that Peele was a member of his “Avengers team” that he wanted to bring together. According to him, many people, especially at work, will not come back from it.
“Other people like him work on OD. We call them the Avengers. When they are revealed, my name will be completely forgotten. Every time I show this list to agents or managers, they have a hard time believing it’s true. They say to me: “How did you manage to bring together all these people who don’t listen to anyone?” » (above HideoTube). The bets are off: who are these Avengers? The mangaka Junji Ito? Nicolas Winding Refn? John Carpenter? Guillermo Del Toro? Considering that Hideo Kojima has dated many famous people and Hollywood personalities since 2015, it is impossible to create a fixed and definitive list.
