Microsoft Xbox Game Studios and Kojima Productions

Xbox Game Studios and Kojima Productions have announced a partnership on the development of another title. This evening’s Xbox and Bethesda Showcase carried affirmation of Microsoft’s new partnership with Metal Gear Solid maker Hideo Kojima.

Subtleties were meager on the ground – truly, there was nothing here that had not been reported for as of now – however, this evening Microsoft made it official.

Kojima is working on a brand new project with Xbox which will harness the company’s cloud technology. On the off chance that this sounds familiar, indeed, it’s a commitment we’ve heard previously, and a detail that initially tracked down its direction online the previous summer, when whispers of Kojima working with Microsoft originally hit the internet.

“It’s a completely new game, one that no one has ever experienced or seen before,” Kojima said today. “I’ve waited very long for the day I could finally start to create it. With Microsoft’s cutting edge cloud technology and the change in the industry’s trend it has now become possible to challenge myself to make this never-before-seen concept.

“It may take some time, but I’m looking forward to teaming up with Xbox Game Studios and hope to bring you some exciting news in the future! Thank you!”

Last year, a report expressed Kojima and Xbox had been discussing the possibility of performing for quite a while, and that Microsoft’s employing of Portal developer Kim Swift to manage the new Xbox cloud game partnership was essential for the prep for Kojima’s undertaking.

Kojima’s past game, obviously, was Death Stranding – for which he partnered with PlayStation. Fans had expected a sequel to that game, however, in 2020 Kojima noted he’d as of late had a”major project” cancelled. “I’m pretty pissed, but that’s the games industry for you,” he composed. Last month, be that as it may, Death Stranding star Norman Reedus seemed to recommend work on a spin-off had started.

Kojima Productions released its Death Stranding game for the PlayStation 4 in November 2019 and released the game on PC in July 2020. The game dominated the Outstanding Achievement in Audio Design and Outstanding Technical Achievement awards at the 23rd yearly D.I.C.E. Awards in February 2019. Death Stranding: Director’s Cut, the PlayStation 5 variant of the game, launched on September 24.
