Kojima Productions reveals future projects at 10th anniversary show

Kojima Productions celebrates a decade with a live showcase that hints at new projects and cross‑platform ambitions.

Kojima Productions marks 10th anniversary with Beyond The Strand show

Kojima Productions will celebrate its 10th anniversary with a livestreamed showcase called Beyond The Strand at TOHO Cinemas Roppongi Hills on September 23. Hideo Kojima will host the two-and-a-half-hour event, with tickets going on sale from September 2. The show promises a glimpse into future projects and will feature special guests as the studio tests how it can translate its signature storytelling to broader platforms.

Two projects are in the works: OD, a collaboration with Microsoft that involves Jordan Peele, and Physint, a title with Sony. Physint is still in a very early stage, with Kojima saying he is currently the only person working on it, while OD is viewed as the more developed option that could be shown during the stream. The timing follows Death Stranding 2, and the studio is clearly positioning its next slate as a cross‑platform, multimedia effort.

The event signals a strategic shift for Kojima Productions from a single‑player game creator to a brand that curates cross‑media storytelling. The pairing with Microsoft for OD and the Sony collaboration on Physint suggests a broader platform approach that could extend beyond traditional console releases. That strategy brings both upside and risk: it can expand reach and diversify revenue, but it also raises expectations that a creator known for bold, risky ideas will deliver coherent, market‑ready experiences across formats.

As Kojima builds out a multi‑project slate, the show will test whether fans are willing to follow the studio into new realms and whether platform partners can translate Kojima’s distinctive voice into other media. If OD is the centerpiece, the pressure will mount to blend cinema‑like pacing with game mechanics in a way that justifies major cross‑downstream investments. The bigger question is how quickly the studio can move from tease to tangible product while maintaining creative control.
