Will Hideo Kojima’s new spy game be coming to PS5 despite PlayStation shutdown? The developers themselves don’t know this yet!
Cult developer Hideo Kojima actually teamed up with Sony to launch his spiritual Metal Gear Solid successor, Physint. However, Sony recently pulled out of funding for the game — something that also happened during a Zoom call, according to Kojima, who spoke on the subject at Tokyo Game Show.
“I was just shocked and surprised. I didn’t feel any anger or sadness. I just thought, ‘What should I do?’ This was a big problem for us and I couldn’t tell the employees at the time,” Kojima said in an interview. washington post.
Meanwhile, Kojima Productions has secured Microsoft Xbox as a new partner for Physint, ensuring further development of the spy game. But what does this mean for PS5 fans? Will Physint also be coming to Sony consoles, not just the Xbox Series X/S? For this question, even Kojima himself does not have an answer yet.
during an interview IGN Hideo Kojima was asked about this, and although Sony pulled out of financing the game, a PS5 launch is not completely ruled out at this time. But this decision was not made by Kojima Productions either. Kojima said the issue should be raised directly with Microsoft Xbox.
Specifically, he said: “I don’t know the answer to that question – it’s going to be an issue for Xbox. But I’m not sure. I’m getting the impression through previous Xbox updates that their stance is to reach as many players as possible, regardless of platform. I think all of that will be announced at a later date. I’m not sure yet and can’t really reveal anything specific.”
