Hideo Kojima's next espionage game Physint won't be out for a few years yet
Hideo Kojima’s forthcoming espionage game Physint won’t be released for quite a few years yet.
Kojima’s next game, Death Stranding 2, is on the cusp of release, but Physint is already in development alongside Xbox horror game OD.
He even wants to create a film as well, but these game projects are a priority first. “Besides Death Stranding 2, there’s Physint in development,” Kojima told French magazine Le Film Français (via ResetEra). “It’ll take me another five or six years. But maybe after that, I could finally decide to tackle a film.”

He continued: “I grew up with cinema. Directing it would be a kind of homage to it. Besides, I’m getting older, and I’d prefer to do it while I’m still young.”
Kojima is now 61 years of age, meaning Physint won’t be released until he’s into his late 60s and, at this rate, a film won’t be likely until he’s in his 70s.
And with a few years to go until Physint, does that mean it could release on Sony’s next console? Back in 2022, a confidential document suggested the company wouldn’t expect a PlayStation 6 until at least 2027. Of course, that may have changed to even later now.
