In full seduction operation with Japanese studios, Microsoft took advantage of the Xbox & Bethesda Games Showcase which took place yesterday to announce a partnership with Hideo Kojima. A news that did not surprise many people in the sense that the entire video game industry had known for a while that the creator of Death Stranding was working on an Xbox exclusive. "There is a game that I have always dreamed of making, explained Kojima-san in particular. The kind of game that no one has yet seen or experienced. I have waited a long time for the day when I can finally start to Thanks to Microsoft's cutting-edge Cloud technology, and new trends in the industry, I am finally able to challenge myself and offer this concept never seen before. It will probably take some time, but I look forward to working with Xbox Game Studios and hope to hear from you in the future.
Will this collaboration have an impact on the links between Hideo Kojima and Sony Interactive Entertainment? No. "After the announcement of our partnership with Microsoft regarding our cloud-based project, many people asked us about our collaboration with Sony Interactive Entertainment, explains Kojima Productions in a tweet. Rest assured that we will also continue to have great relationship with PlayStation." That has the merit of being clear. For the moment, it is unknown if the project in question is the horror game Overdose which leaked a few days ago, or if it is an entirely different game.
After the announcement of our partnership with Microsoft using the cloud technology, many people have asked us about our collaboration with SIE. Please be assured that we continue to have a very good partnership with PlayStation® as well.#KojimaProductions https://t.co/mVOELwDuk9
