It will "explore the concept of testing your fear threshold, and what it means to OD on fear". [4] Kojima stated he is "working with Xbox Game Studios and their cloud gaming technology to take on the challenge of creating a very unique, immersive, and totally new style of game—or rather, a new form of media". [5]

Development

The partnership between Kojima Productions and Xbox Game Studios for the game is revealed at the Xbox Developer Direct in 2022. [6] Kojima and Peele appeared at the Game Awards 2023. [7]

In November 2022, two and a half minutes of gameplay were leaked on a live stream recording of a phone and on Twitter, showing a fearful nurse at a hospital walking around with a flashlight. The video ends with the cryptic symbols forming to say "GAMEOVER" and "OVERDOSE". [8]

The actors' and environment scanning was suspended in the second half of 2024 due to the ongoing video game strike and is planned to resume in 2025. [9]
