After the split between Hideo Kojima and Konami, Metal Gear fans were left without the icon at the helm. Hideo has helped bring out so many memorable installments that it was bitter news that he was leaving the studio.

Of course, this is not the only game being developed at Kojima Productions. We know Death Stranding 2: On The Beach is in the works. That is, the game narrative is still being kept secret, even from the actors who will be voicing the characters. However, there is also a game being partnered up with Microsoft to deliver a game called OD, a title that doesn’t have
