Hideo Kojima shares some new thoughts on his PlayStation-exclusive MGS competitor PHYSINT and claims moms won’t be able to tell it apart from a movie.
Hideo Kojima believes that moms will not know the difference between PHYSINT and a movie, having said as much in a recent interview. The remark was offered as part of a somewhat wider look at the current Kojima Productions agenda that also saw the famed game designer share some new thoughts on everything that’s presently on his plate.
PHYSINT is a Metal Gear Solid competitor that was announced during the latest State of Play stream on January 31. Kojima described the project as “a strong collaboration” with Sony while pointing to the Japanese group’s massive presence in the music and movie industry in the same breath. Some fans took this to mean that PHYSINT will blend the line between interactive entertainment and other media formats even more than Kojima’s past titles did, especially since the announcement also saw him outright describe it as both a game and a movie.
The game designer reiterated and expanded on that point in a recent interview centered on his upcoming projects. The video saw him suggest that the movie comparison might be quite literal by stating that it wasn’t a coincidence that the PHYSINT announcement was recorded at Sony Pictures, the Japanese group’s filmmaking branch.
