Announced and premiered last year, Connecting worlds– the documentary about the famous game director Hideo Kojima– is now available to everyone on Disney+. And while it may only appeal to Kojima superfans, at least it’s not very long, clocking in at a cool 60 minutes, about 11 minutes less than the famous video game auteur’s longest cutscene.
Produced by PlayStation Studios and Kojima Productions, Hideo Kojima: Connecting worlds is primarily a documentary about the early life of Metal Gear Solid Creatorand also a look at how he now develops games in his independent studio. As a former My city wrote author Ashley Bardhan in 2023:
“It avoids the subject of Konami (which Kojima left behind after three decades, both establishing his career and cementing a somewhat timid reputation) entirely, and spends most of its running time on select moments.” Death Stranding‘s production.”
Ironically, for a man known for making games that typically feature very long cutscenes, the film documentary (which he neither directed nor edited) is only 60 minutes long according to Disney+.
Kojima’s longest cutscene can be found in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
Some other long cutscenes, which are technically shorter than his new documentary, include the Fast 30 minute end Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater And another half-hour ending sequence Death Stranding. The guy wasn’t kidding when he wrote in his Twitter bio, “70% of my body is movies.”
