Kojima-san possibly working on another PlayStation title

This is at least more plausible than From making a PS5 exclusive game.

I still find it weird that grown ass men are praying that other kids won't able to play with their toys :messenger_beaming: Console warring is a hell of a drug.

Kojima is a de facto Sony employee. He worked closely with Guerrilla, even got their engine. He has unusual inside knowledge. If he pitched something to MS, its because Sony possibly turned his idea down. But I would say his next game is PS5 bound at the very least.

Sony also made a post on PSBlog about PlayStation Devs favourite Souls bosses, the first “PlayStation dev” listed was From Software’s Hidetaka Miyazaki.
Going from complaining the game stole the spotlight from an exclusive, to making that company an exclusive.

PS crew is a strange bunch.

I really wish he tackles the stealth / espionage genre again.

Ever since they killed Metal Gear, the genre is dead, even more with Splinter Cell nowhere to be found too.

But whatever he makes, I'm sure I'll easily jump in.

I also think Sony will buy Kojima productions. I am sure he was first skeptical and wanted to stay independent, but I am sure a deal like the one which bungie got, where they have a guaranteed creative freedom only the Sony umbrella is also interesting for Kojima.

Whatever it is hopefully it will be as big a breath of fresh air as Death Stranding was.....that game took the standard open world game and made it interesting again.

And no, it’s not DS2, Reedus said there are discussions about it, but what do people think Kojima did since the release of DS? The DC only required a skeleton crew and minimal work if any from Kojima.

So we have the following information:

- it’s not DS 2 since it’s too early.

- it’s probably a horror game since Kojima said multiple times he is interested in making one.

- it’s most likely an existing IP, if it would be a new IP he would have already announced at least the title by now, think about how early he announced Death Stranding. The only reason for hiding the title is if it’s an existing IP.

Considering the above and all the rumors (even from Gematsu), everything else than Silent Hills would be a surprise at this point.

Where is the Xbox exclusive game? That is still supposed to be coming, right?
Why does that matter? Is your pc broken?
PC is home to Souls games now. Deal with it. We PC gamers like our Souls games! I bought a PS4 just for Bloodborne. Would have never done that if it was released on PC. And now I never need to worry about From making a Souls game exclusively for PS ever again. Feels good!

Probably just a lecture about Nukes. You press start and then the games just plays the video.

This is going to go down as the most iconic dev picture of all time.

can someone explain me? I did saw that photo all over the place here, I never understood it.

1. He's been posting mo cap studio pictures for over half a year now.

2. Sony's motion mo cap studio was also used to shoot RE Village, which last I checked wasn't a console exclusive.

But you said “nothing is hinting at a game here lol”

So what is it? Is it hinting at a game now? I never said it was a Sony exclusive. Simply asked you what he was using the mocap stage for if you felt it wasn’t hinting at a game.

Because he's been posting pics of the mo cap studio as early as mid 2021, there's no new information here now except that he got hold of a new teleconference system.

You're just reading into this tweet what you want to read, not what's actually being presented, i-e he just got a new teleconference system.

Mado is a telepresence service, there's absolutely nothing hinting at a game here lol

Y'all are taking some big whiffs of copium here.

I doubt he'd be using it if he wasn't working on a Sony Playstation game though right?

MS has their own mocap which those resources would be provided for.

Some are being painfully obtuse here.

I didn't say Kojima is doing mo-cap for an MS exclusive game.

Regardless, it may be the studio preference if they want to work with a particular mo cap studio they're familiar with.

But the point is that this topic is nothing but hopes and dreams, with no real evidence of anything that points to any game.

So him posting photos of using the teleconference system to connect with his team in LA at Sony’s Mocap Studio isn’t hinting at a game he is making?

My original question was "then what do you assume he is using Sony’s Mocap stage for?"

So again, can you answer the question as it is evident he has been teleconferencing with his team at the mocap studio?

This is almost as absurd as that S___ H___ topic.

We can keep going back and forth on this for months or years and EVENTUALLY he'll announce a game some time and you can use it as a "AHA SEE" then, but nothing in this set of tweets hints at anything. For all we know the mo cap pictures from last year were for the new Death Stranding DC content. We don't know if/what game Koji Pro is developing right now outside of some rumors saying it's a SH game and some rumors saying its an Xbox game.

It's a Sony tech from their film side isn't it?

I do think it's likely Kojima is working with Playstation on a title, but if they are working with Microsoft, or Sega, or Comodore 64 on a title they'd still use Sony's mocap tech. It's what their studio bought lol


edit: Oh it's a teleconferencing system that Sony is selling/piloting.. that was installed at KJP Japan.. I'm still confused where Sony's mocap studio comes in, is that where he is in some of the photos? I need to read the whole OP lol

edit2: Oh I see that's the "actor" for God of War... that tidbit might help people realize what "SSM" even means or how it's proof it's from Sony Santa-Monica.

Then why even bring up MS at all?

He posted pictures of him using the system yesterday communicating with his team in LA. What do you assume he and his team in LA were teleconferencing about yesterday? That is all I've been asking, Adam. Don't let the simple question hurt your head. You said nothing from his tweets is hinting at a game, I asked what do you think it is hinting at if he is communicating with his team at the mocap stage as per the photos in the tweet?

That was just to answer the "but he's using Sony's mo-cap studio" therefore it must be a Sony exclusive game, we literally can't say that right now :p

There has yet to be any proof Sony is using Azure as well, since the original deal announcement was for "exploration for a possible future partnership"... they are still using AWS, OpenStack, etc.

So your analogy is just as daft.

Except the KJP side of the "MADO" system arrived a week ago...

Which he announced... then a week later posted the picture showing him working in Sony's studio, connected to KJP Japan with the MADO system that didn't exist at KJP Japan until a week ago.

So no, he wasn't recording things last year lol

Does it "prove" he's working on a game with Sony? No.. but it's a decent indication of that. Which would be the least shocking news on the planet.. it's pretty much assumed KJP has a Sony exclusive in the pipeline..I mean DS2 is heavily rumored for instance.

Do you believe Kojima is making a game right now?

I'd be pretty sad if his next game is ps exclusive since there are no other games creators i care about currently in gaming, Kojima and Miyazaki are only ones

Who knows, setting up his new system that he just got maybe ? testing it out like you do ?

It's literally hinting at him getting a new telecom system and nothing else. You keep asking the question there's no answer for lol.

He could be, last I read he's supposedly developing a cloud based game for Xbox.

But nothing in this set of tweets hints at anything like that.

You don’t think it would have been a good idea to get a playstation if kojima was your favorite game creator?

Its like people that say they are sad persona or final fantasy isn’t coming to xbox or steam. Like, have you been sleeping under a rock for the past 7 years?

Japanese AAA = playstation

Okay, so let's just be the arbiter of picking and choosing what rumors can be speculated on. Sony providing all these resources to him like they do their first party, just so he can not do anything for them in return but communicate with a space age walkie talkie. To the mocap studio used for game creation by said studios.

The resources they provided helped create Death Stranding and kept it as a console exclusive, if it was an ongoing thing there wouldn't be persistent rumors about him getting into negotiations with MS for a game in the first place.

But we're venturing off topic from this topic about him getting a new telecom system. :messenger_mr_smith_who_are_you_going_to_call:

As far as the mo cap goes.


This didn't make Village a PS exclusive title.

So it's a pointless tangent.
