Deadpool 2 actor Shiori Kutsuna will join Elle Fanning in a role on Hideo Kojima's next game, it has been confirmed. The actor appears on a page on the Kojima Productions website with the tagline: "Where am I?" A previous teaser confirmed the Super 8 star Fanning will also be part of the project, which is currently unannounced. Widespread rumours suggest it may be Death Stranding 2.
Kojima has recently been meeting up with the likes of Hermen Hulst, Jim Ryan, and other Sony bigwigs, fuelling some speculation that another game is in the works. The Metal Gear Solid maker does have another game in the works with Microsoft, however, so there is a possibility this project doesn't make it to PS5. Although, it is said to be very early in development and would unlikely be teasing actors at this point.
Following the page detailing Kutsuna with the phrase "Where am I?" placed on top, a second screen flashes the text "How Come?" with a new monster just above the Kojima Productions logo. What do you make of all this? Share your thoughts in the comments below.

Small correction: Elle "Fanning"
@RBMango Thanks for that!
Oh I love this actress, she is so cute!
She's a lead role in the Invasion tv show, check her out!
@Dr_Luigi Console launch exclusive is pretty unambiguous imo. For Xbox, that has always translated to "will launch on our platforms first, will come to other(s) later". Could also end up on just Switch maybe?
@dschons Some games don't need to be stated - Xbox Published games that may also be sold on 'steam' for example are not Xbox Exclusive and don't really need to be stated they are Console Exclusive either.
As Kojima said: "Hi everyone, this is Hideo Kojima. Yes, there is a game I have always wanted to make. It’s a completely new game, one that no one has ever experienced or seen before. I’ve waited very long for the day when I could finally start to create it. With Microsoft’s cutting-edge cloud technology and the change in the industry’s trend, it has now become possible to challenge myself to make this never-before-seen concept. It may take some time, but I’m looking forward to teaming up with Xbox Game Studios and hope to bring you some exciting news in the future! Thank you!”
Which to me seems like he is working with Xbox and probably Published by Xbox and using MS Cloud technology to build a game that is essentially 'cloud' based - not on disc or running on 'local hardware so I don't know how they could bring that to Playstation.
If you want to play, you still won't need to buy an Xbox Console as their cloud service is available almost everywhere!
I guess it's a Squid with spears sticking in it? (Even though squid have ten arms/tentacles)
I'll have to finish Death Stranding before I know if I want it to be more Death Stranding, but all the logos are very Death Stranding looking.
@BAMozzy As for the Kojima game, I agree. Whether it will be available on other streaming platforms, I don't know and I don't care either because, as you said, it is not as dependent on specific hardware. I will most likely stream it via PC.
@Dr_Luigi Sure, it could be a mistake (although I'd be a little shocked since it has been pointed out by some outlets and it still says it) but it fits with the wording they used in their E3 presentation. Either way, I don't really care. I'll most likely play it on PC anyway.
@KaijuKaiser Probably because not only your opinion matters and there are people like me who think DS is one of the best games ever made.
@Ravix Is that an otter on your head or are you just happy to see me?
@dschons They did say and at the Xbox Showcade (and later on a interview with Spencer) that it will be a Xbox Game Studios game, the only game from XGS that are not exclusives are in the Minecraft IP.
About Pentiment, the page dont have "console lauch exclusive" on it. In fact i just found the platforms nothing about exclusivity.
Great news, I like her 😎
Seems like every week there is a new kojima fart-smelling article.
@dschons And thats the same with regards to Call of Duty too - in that as long as Sony make hardware that they can 'ship' CoD too, they will continue to release it on that platform. However, if you can access 'Playstation' on your Mobile, PC, TV etc and no longer 'need' hardware, then you'll miss out on CoD but will get Destiny instead.
Ideally, MS want to be able to put Game Pass on PS and have you subscribe to stream games to that hardware. I can see MS dropping out of the console market and let 3rd Party hardware deliver their games - whether its a mobile/dedicated handheld, laptop/tablet/PC or any other compatible devices. You could play Xbox on your in-car entertainment system as it drives you to work.
Hardware is not sustainable - and to offer 'cutting' edge technology at a 'budget' price (as consoles are), they are sold at a loss/subsidised knowing that you will buy Games and Accessories which will eventually become profitable - the more games, accessories and/or services you buy, the quicker they recoup their loss and start making money - hence its a 'locked' system with only their 'store' - no competition allowed.
If you can play all of Xbox on your TV without needing to spend £500+ on a console that can't match the visual/performance quality of streaming (due to running on limited local hardware), then people will stop buying dedicated hardware and buy hardware to suit their lifestyle and can play their games on whatever 'hardware' they want...
@MaikonCSGarcia The platforms are of course only Xbox and PC right now since they have not revealed anything else. However, they seem to have removed the console launch exclusive from the webpage. This must have happened recently though. It was on there for months.
I find that games relying on celebrity cameos are (sometimes, not always) doomed to failure as the emphasis is placed on the celebrity more than the game. Remember how much CoD did the celebrity thing to death?
@KaijuKaiser Probably because he doesn't have the same weight there and he knows how to tell stories in games!
I'll be honest, when I first read the header title I thought Ryan Reynolds would be starring in this game lol.
@KaijuKaiser Maybe Death Stranding was too much for you perhaps? Stick to Fortnite pal 👍
