Kojima Productions Reveals Overdose At TGA 2023

Kojima Productions has unveiled a brand-new project titled “Overdose” at The Game Awards 2023 in partnership with Xbox Game Studios. The ninety seconds of footage perfectly conveys the bizarre nature of this game while piquing the curiosity of players, something that Kojima has become known for over the years.

Overdose aka OD is being developed using Unreal Engine 5 and incorporates new technologies such as Meta Human. We see three different characters going over extremely thought-provoking topics, culminating in an unexpected, emotional, and high-pitched plea by one of the female characters. It’s not clear as to what prompted that response but we’re sure to find out more in due time.

Hideo parted ways with Konami after Metal Gear Solid 5 in the 2010s and later formed Kojima Productions to develop projects without being limited in creativity. This led to the birth of Death Stranding, a rather bold yet unique take on video games. Bringing in iconic names in the project such as Mads Mikkelsen and Norman Reedus, Death Stranding centered around making deliveries throughout a broken and fragmented world in hopes of reconnecting it.

Kojima Productions pushed the boundaries of multiplayer experiences in gaming with Hideo referring to DS as the first “strand game” citing how Metal Gear was originally considered an action game due to the stealth genre not being established at the time. With critics and players praising the game for its innovation, the studio continued to work on the series with a sequel currently in development.

Last year, eXputer reported on a leak for Overdose that featured early gameplay footage. Keeping in line with his previous work, it appears that Kojima Productions is once again gearing up to deliver a unique experience in gaming with OD. As to how this will turn out, it’s anybody’s guess.
