KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS and XBOX GAME STUDIOS officially announced OD at The Game Awards. World-renowned game creator Hideo Kojima has partnered with Academy Award winning filmmaker Jordan Peele, the acclaimed film director of “Get Out,” “Us,” and “Nope,” who will be one of several talented storytellers involved in the project.
“We are working with Xbox Game Studios and their cloud gaming technology to take on the challenge of creating a very unique, immersive, and totally new style of game – or rather, a new form of media,” said Hideo Kojima, Game Creator and Founder of KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS.
A HIDEO KOJIMA GAME, OD explores the concept of testing your fear threshold, and what it means to OD on fear – while blurring the boundaries of gaming and film. The new teaser for OD also reveals Sophia Lillis (“Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves”), Hunter Schaffer (“Euphoria”) and Udo Kier (“Flesh for Frankenstein”), who will play the lead roles in the upcoming project.
The Nerd Stash: Kojima Productions as a whole is nothing without Hideo Kojima himself and the backing of either Xbox or PlayStation.
Lets be honest Kojima is a Playstation man through and through and his effort on the MS project will be minimal, experimental and lip service at best. Once DS2 is complete he will focus almost all of his efforts on this new Stealth IP for Playstation, thinking anything else is just denial.
What I noticed was that Kojima’s spiritual Metal Gear new IP having game and movie integration/overlap/continuati on (in some way) sounds very much like the vision he revealed at the Game Awards regarding his partnership with Xbox.
Some chump was recommending he sell his business to PlayStation - why would he do that? He has his own company, it’s making big money, he’s partnered with the biggest names to create his dream projects. Hideo Kojima is winning.
So you think he's gonna intentionally blemish his reputation with a bad game... Because console wars? That's crazy.
I think O.D is a Spiritual Silent Hill and Physint is a spiritual Metal Gear.
Yep, Microsofts move to pay Kojima for his canceled Google project was a desperate play for relevancy. Just like them paying Sega for Persona, a genre game xbox fans largely aren't interested in just to say that they have quirky Japanese games on their platform to, same with
square and it's Mana game. Of course Kojima will focus on the project that will get the most attention from from the gaming public and make the most money.
so how should they try and have japanese made games on their platform then? Also was sony just desperate then that they threw 3.6 billion at bungie just so they can say they have live service games or does it only work one way?
Xbox never had as many japanese games as Sony/Ninty but they always had a couple of (good) japanese games on their platform, nothing wrong with having a amazing game like Persona 5 on your platform, I don't see how you can even give such a bad take about having persona be available to more players, astonishing.
MS provides the tech and funds for the OD project and you think he'll just ignore that game? You really think MS would allow that? Every person that thinks straight knows that, that's not how it works. That N4G logic in on another world of nonsensical stupidity.
They didn’t actually say stealth
They said espionage.
This is better for me I don’t have the nerves for stealth but a James Bond esque game with a bit of puzzle solving/ detective work and minimal stealth, would be great!
We all know Kojima likes his freedom and we know what console developers get the most freedom🤷🏿 only an orchard full of moldy brains would think otherwise.
VenomUK
i took that as him saying there will be no difference from gameplay to cutscenes. Equal amount game and movie. Something he wanted to achieve with MGS but with PS6 tech he will have that. I am sure sony will discuss PS6's specs with him so he can provide his feedback and know what he is working with
Workshyskiver
even he said his partnership with sony goes back 3 decades so yes i am sure he is a playstation guy through and through but i don't think he will short change xbox
Neutral you're not wrong. There is absolutely no reason for Kojima not to do his best with od its got his name associated with it. It's not like Kojima to half a$$ anything.
What I meant is the scope and effort put in to the project. I'll be shocked if OD is as big in scope as DS, DS2 or his new game.
Hideo is more like a cracked Whiffle ball bat. Roulette? No, he’s more likely to stub a toe in the shallow end of the pool and cry. I love how he’s a superficial champion because people liked and fan for his games, shallow minded as f. You need to seriously crack the curtain open.
Kojima Productions is nothing without its misplaced and very skilled staff (what you think Hideo came up//made/designed all this himself? are you nutz?). Hideo is 100% NOT a business man (As evidenced with his behavior and dealings with Konami’s funds and his own studio (eh…yeah that bridge is sooo krispy and still smoking).
Elitism, drama and ego have no place in gaming and it’s a constant theme with KP. Don’t give a f what their new game is about, and Hideo did that himself. Go suck an 1000 year old egg Hideo. We’ll expect to see your studio did for you on sale few months after release and free within a year. I’d love to see his staff go-western (since he likes to) and grow a pair and leave him flat on his ass).
These days Hideo comes off worse than an annoying influencer desperate for clicks. More news about his studio BS or the ‘innovation and special magic’ they infusing into a game rather than giving news on the actual game, and then we get shi7 like death stranding….
By Nopezima Productions x 1000
Xbox has a slew of games lined up for release in 2024 and beyond, and this feature will list down 15 of the best Xbox Series X/S games coming out.
There´s more:
Indiana Jones
Flight Simulator 2024
The Outer Worlds 2
TBA:
Gears 6
Fallout 5
Project Mara
Project Dragon
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remake
Gears of War Collection
New Halo
Also new Activision and Blizzard games are gonna be exclusive.
I know Infinity Ward is working on an RPG.
And there's Project Oddysey from Blizzard.
Xbox is really becoming the house of western RPGs haha
Not all ABK stuff will be exclusive. Crash, Spyro etc will be multiplat full stop. Returning franchises will be multiplat. They will have some exclusives but I think ABK will be 50, 50 tbh, if even that now that I think about it.
Blizzards Odyssey will be multiplat IMO. Again this is alll imo I haven't heard anything yet we'll have to see.
@Lightning77
Lol if they're willing to make Elder Scrolls and pretty much everything else outside of CoD and Minecraft exclusive, what actually makes you think Spyro and Crash won't be? 😂
Crash and Spyro are Multiplats. MS doesn't gain anything keeping those games only on Xbox. It'll be day one on GP of course they'll be on PS and Switch.
@Hunted what am I coping exactly? Big heavy hitting games like a Elder Scrolls will be exclusive because that will drive gamepass and even console sales. Spyro and Crash not so much on that front.
Zeref, Crash and Spyro appeals to children. Microsoft never seems willing to cut children off. It might be brand building or it might be they just won't deny them. But as for anything adult I don't think there are limits to what will be made exclusive. Like you said Elder Scholls was made exclusive. A lot of games will be as they buy more companies. Unless of course the government jumps in and ignores all of Sony's exclusivity deals, even ones that state companies can't work on Xbox, and stops Microsoft from controlling its own software. Which also wouldn't surprise me.
A circus tent of Bethesda jank is more like it. When Bethesda makes something even remotely close to Marrowind, New Vegas, BG3, and so on, then I would call it a house.
In addition there are also 10-15 games in development by third parties but will be published by Xbox Game Studios. Of which, we know only a few so far:
OD by KojiPro
Contraband by Avalanche
007 game by IO (heavily rumoured)
People can Fly project (confirmed only as a AAA title)

IO Interactive is self publishing their 007 game. The Xbox project is called Project Fantasy, formerly Project Dragon.
there are no xb exclusives since they go day and date with pc, look up the word exclusive
Is Horizon forbidden west, Returnal and Ratchet a PS5 console exclusive or NoT ?
The definition has changed. Get with the program.
The only console with true exclusives is the Switch.
Fallout 5 isn't coming until after TES VI. Todd Howard already said this. It's not coming this generation.
I guess a lot of ppl aren't fans of upcoming game release lists lolz....
I want you to know I appreciated your post
did they really just show me footage from perfect dark n64/ xbx360
that's 2 GENERATIONS AGO, they still clinging onto hope I see
Not sure what you meant by "hope".
Perfect Dark has been developed by an entire new studio and built from the ground up.
The game was announced later in 2020, and, with so many first party games in development at XGS, there´s absolutely zero reason to rush it.
I guess we won't have to hear 'Xbox had no games!" Anymore.
Also @purple
What Gen is TLOU2 from? 🤔
No but they'll simply move their goal posts and say something like... xbox has to buy games. Forgetting sony has purchased studios as well. Same game different name.
Xbox will still have the same amount of games as always, they've just removed competitions access to multiplatform publishers. They've just convinced you that removing games from competitors means you're getting more when the truth is because of MS others are getting less.
Careful, TLOU wasn’t rehashed from a 5th gen n64 game
I doubt you were alive when perfect dark first released but I was
And it was game of the year,
In 1999. Time to move on
If those games aren't released on the PS5 or Nintendo gaming console then they are XB gaming console exclusives.
Title say "Xbox series exclusives" so he is right there are no exclusives, only console exclusives
I’m fine with the term ‘console exclusive’, as I don’t play on PC. It tells me what I need to know about what’s going where. What I have to look forward to in different ecosystems.
Do you include every PS game on PC as not an exclusive? If so Sony doesn't have very many exclusives. One might say "PS has no games!".
Yes if a Playstation game is available on another platform it's not an exclusive, PS fans have no problem saying that. They're not the ones calling games exclusive when thay are available on another platorm,PS has plenty of games which are true exclusives. Also if some says " PS has no games" then that person would be a moron.
@Lazarus69
You can't make an incorrect statement like that and try to pass it as fact, if you want to be taken seriously.
So I guess the same can be said about Sony with a good number of their games on PC right?
Same but with differences. Sony does not release all their games on PC and when they do they come multiple years later.
@Piroh Again....if those 17 games shown are not releasing on a PS or a Nintendo gaming console, then those 17 games are XB gaming console exclusives. PC is not a gaming console.
That's the point. The article is calling them "exclusives" when they should call it "console exclusive".
He did say "Console Exclusive" at the beginning of the video. It's clear you didn't watch it.
@rippermcrip semantics. We all know what the true intended meaning is no matter which words we use or how we dress it up linguistically.
Whether it says "console exclusive" or "exclusive" what this means is ponies and switch owners will not be playing these games
As a XBSX owner the only games out of the 17 shown that I have interest in are the exclusives Stalker 2 & Clockwork Revolution. Most of everything else shown in the video I can't say because most of those AAA games have no gameplay. So far everything shown has no concrete official 2024 release date, maybe this Thursday's showcase XB will have some official release dates on upcoming releases.
Yep! Those are the only 2 I'm interested in as well. Just got me a semi-decent gaming laptop so I'm looking forward to playing those 2 Xbox-exclusives.
Kojima Productions and Xbox Game Studios forthcoming game OD files some strange patents, echoing Death Stranding's own strand system on PS5.
No both the headline and the article are totally false. There is no file for a "patent" just the trademark, which the article hosts hyperlinks to but seems to deliberately misquote.
So TGA is pretty much the Xbox December Showcase.
So crazy.
damn ... Jordan Peele as well
Is someone here a designated driver for Kojima? He's drunk again
Pretty impressive tech. I know this isn't the first of its kind to demonstrate this level of tech, but the uncanny valley effect is almost nonexistent
Well, that was kind of creepy...
