Hideo Kojima has spoken to horror mangaka Junji Ito about a horror-based game that he may be working on. As reported by ComicBook.com, Ito was being interviewed by Viz Media during Comic-Con@Home 2020 and was asked if he was currently involved in any video game development. Ito, who was working with Kojima and Guillermo del Toro on the canceled Silent Hills project and made a cameo in Death Stranding, confirmed he was in talks about a potential new horror project and Kojima invited him to work on it. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2015/10/29/del-toro-reveals-more-about-silent-hills-horrifying-manga-influence"] "So, the simple answer is no," Ito's translator Junko Goda relayed. "However, I do know director Kojima and we have been in conversation that he might have a horror-based game that he may be doing, and so he has invited me to work on that, but there are no details on it yet." While this vague answer doesn't confirm that Kojima's next project will be a horror game, it is great to see he is still trying to work with Ito after the promise of what could have been for Silent Hills. Kojima recently revealed that a "big project" was recently scrapped, and that his next game would not be anything related to Metal Gear Solid or P.T. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=every-ign-kojima-game-review&captions=true"] Last month, however, a Tweet by Kojima may have teased that this next project could be a sequel to Death Stranding or may take place within its universe. In 2017, Kojima also admitted that he doesn't want to make a "horror game," but that doesn't rule out that any future project led by him could include horror elements, and that's where Ito could be a perfect fit.
