Kojima Productions may work on a horror game with Junji ItoA horrifying possibility

A horrifying possibility

We may still be coaxing strand man Sam across the United States inDeath Stranding, but Kojima Productions are already looking forward to the next strand of their game development plans. Not only did KojProd recentlytease work on a new project, but that doesn’t seem to be the only iron in the fire. Horror manga artist Junji Ito says that he might just be talking with Kojima about an upcominghorror game.

“I do know director Kojima and we have been in conversation that he may have a horror-based game that he may be doing, and so he has invited me to work on that, but there are no details on it yet.” Sounds like nothing is set in stone, but Kojima has apparently rung up Ito to talk about the possibility, anyway.

This wouldn’t be ol' Kojima’s first foray into horror, of course. We all rememberPT, right? It was the playable teaser Kojima directed for a cancelled Silent Hill game that’s since vanished into the internet ether and spawned fan recreations in everything from aHalf-Life: Alyx PT modto aHyperCard game. Safe to say there might be some folks out there eager to see Kojima try horror on for size again.
