Hideo Kojima Teases His Next Video Games—OD and Physint

Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is the latest game created by Kojima Productions and Hideo Kojima himself. The game has been one of the best titles of 2025, but the iconic video game creator has already switched his attention to the new project—horror OD and Metal Gear Solid’s spiritual successor, Physint.

Both games are currently in early stages of development, and we don’t know many details. However, as confirmed by Hideo Kojima on X social media, the development of OD and Physint will move forward this year, including casting actors, scanning, and performance capture shoots, as you can check his post below:

“Happy New Year. In 2026, we will move forward with the “Second Phase” that leads into KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS’ “Third Phase.” Unlike last year, like I was traveling all over the world, this year will be about staying grounded and laying solid foundations. We will continue development on the horror game “OD” and move forward with preparations for the espionage action title “PHYSINT.” This includes casting actors, scanning, and performance capture shoots.Also, be pushing forward with the live-action film of DEATH STRANDING, as well as its animation projects, both the movie and series. In addition, we’re preparing several “events” this year. Once things are finalized, I’ll be able to share more.This year also marks my 40th anniversary in the game industry from 1986 and began my journey in game creation. Thank you, as always, for your continued support and supporting KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS. I look forward to another great year”

Both of Hideo Kojima's new video games, OD and Physint, don’t have release dates. Physint is also confirmed to be released on the next generation of consoles, probably when PlayStation 6 launches in 2027 or 2028.
