Xbox Steps In to Publish Kojima’s Physint After PlayStation Exit

Xbox has stepped in to publish Kojima Productions’ stealth espionage game Physint after PlayStation ended its collaboration; announced in 2024, Physint features a cast including Charlee Fraser, Ma Dong-seok, and Minami Hamabe. The game is positioned after Kojima’s OD horror title for Xbox’s next‑gen Project Helix, with release likely several years away (Kojima stated in 2025 Physint could be 5–6 years from release). The publishing shift underscores Kojima’s multi‑platform, cross‑media ambitions, with Xbox hinting at broader collaboration beyond games.

Kojima Warns: A Future Without Physical PlayStation Discs Isn’t Worth Saving

Hideo Kojima reacted to Sony’s plan to phase out PlayStation game discs by 2028, saying he’s saddened by a shift away from physical media.
