Hideo Kojima: The next blockbuster will blur the boundaries between different forms of entertainment

Hideo Kojima recently gave a New Year interview to the Japanese game magazine FAMI-Tsuki. In the interview, Hideo Kojima talked about the studio's next project, which he described as blurring the boundaries between the mediums, which is the future trend of the industry as a whole.

Hideo Kojima said: "[The next project] is a masterpiece, or a new challenge. In the near future, the boundaries between entertainment methods will be broken, and I would like to take this year's opportunity to take a step forward and challenge different types of media and forms of expression. ”

As we all know, Hideo Kojima is very passionate about movies, and his game projects have a very cinematic form of expression, and I don't know how far the next project can blur the boundaries between different forms of entertainment. Maybe it will be the horror game he has been rumored to have wanted to make, or it may be a very different work from Death Stranding. In any case, mixed media is a very exciting direction, no matter what Hideo Kojima does next. Now we just want to see what this work looks like as soon as possible, but also want to know what kind of challenge Hideo Kojima will face.

Kojima Studios' most recent release is Death Stranding: A Director's Cut.
