"Hideo Kojima‘s long-rumoured Xbox project was still on as of a “couple of weeks ago”, it’s been claimed.
It was reported in April 2021 that Microsoft was in talks to sign the next game from the Japanese designer best known for the Metal Gear Solid series.
And last July, it was claimed that Microsoft and Kojima had signed a letter of intent stating that they planned to work together on a new Xbox game.
In a new update on his premium Giant Bomb show Grubbsnax (transcribed by VGC), VentureBeat reporter Jeff Grubb said those plans were still in place.
“As of a couple of weeks ago, the Xbox and Kojima deal was still on,” he claimed.
The update was delivered amid speculation that Sony may have acquired Kojima Productions, following Death Stranding’s inclusion in a promotional banner for PlayStation first-party studios.
Grubb went on to say: “This isn’t based on the information I had last year, this is more recent than that. This is still on”.
He added: “Does this mean that PlayStation couldn’t have acquired Kojima Productions? Not necessarily”.
