Kojima’s OD: Babies, Rain, and Unreal Angst Await!
Get ready to knock on horror’s weirdest door with Hideo Kojima and Xbox’s collab, OD! Announced in 2022 and teased last December, this mind-bending game-movie hybrid stars Sophia Lillis lighting Death Stranding baby candles amid relentless rain and spooky knocks. Powered by Unreal Engine — "one step higher than Death Stranding 2," per Kojima — and Microsoft’s tech muscle, it’s boldly bridging terrifying gameplay and cinematic madness. Jordan Peele’s involved too, though Twitch can’t decide if he’s making an add-on or just haunting the cast party. Xbox’s Phil Spencer insists it’s ‘bold’ and ‘unmistakably Kojima,’ which is code for ‘expect weird.’ Launch date? Still MIA, so keep your umbrellas handy!

Kojima’s OD uses baby-shaped candles and spooky doors to justify why you’ll never leave your house. Featuring Jordan Peele and Microsoft’s Unreal Engine flex, but no idea when it’s done — perfect for gamers who like terror and existential dread equally.
Nothing screams spooky like babies on candles and rain deaths! Kojima and Xbox just raised the bar for ‘why am I afraid to play a game?’ starring Sophia Lillis and dubbed ‘OD Knock’— because knocking and then running is your new cardio.
When Kojima says ‘unique and immersive,’ expect toddler-sized horror icons, a waterproof freakout, and Phil Spencer hyping tech as if he’s selling a dream. Meanwhile, Jordan Peele might be cooking up a horror side dish we didn’t ask for.
