Just over one year ago, Hideo Kojima seemingly confirmed one of the PlayStation 6’s first titles.

It was during a State of Play showcase that the famed auteur revealedPhysint, an “action espionage” game that’ll serve somewhat as a spiritual successor to the Metal Gear series.

It was an incredibly vague reveal. In fact, not a single frame, cinematic, or concept image for the game was showcased.

Instead, Kojima promised thatPhysintwould use “cutting edge technology” in what he labelled as the next level of interactive digital entertainment.

Perhaps the most interesting tidbit to surface aboutPhysintwas the fact that Kojima said this is a game “for the next generation”, seemingly being the first to lockdown as aPlayStation6 title.

The PlayStation 6 isn’t expected to launch for three to four years, but this fits with Kojima’s output.

Death Stranding2: On The Beachis set to land this year, in 2025, six years after the originalDeath Strandingwas released.

It then makes sense that Kojima’s next game for the PlayStation brand wouldn’t be ready until the PS6 generation arrives.

Let’s not forget that he’s also hard at work on horrorODwithXboxGame Studios.

As far away asPhysintremains though, it’s already been subject to a delay with Kojima opening up about the impact of the ongoing video game actor’s strike.

“We hope to resume next year,” he concluded.

ODis certainly further ahead thanPhysintthen, which fits with what we know given thatODhas a teaser trailer andPhysintdoes not.

The fact that casting is yet to commence onPhysintfurther evidences that this is a title many, many years away.

Still, it’s nice to know that we potentially have another Kojima masterpiece to look forward to when the PS6 does finally land.
