Hideo Kojima Shares His Unique Outlook on AI

Hideo Kojima’s impact on gaming has continued to grow, especially after the release of Death Stranding in 2019 and its sequel. The first game was a bold experiment, combining slow-paced exploration with unique online features that focused on cooperation rather than competition. Many doubted a game centered around a delivery person would be successful, but Death Stranding received largely positive feedback, won numerous awards, and led to the creation of Death Stranding 2: On the Beach in 2025. This demonstrated that even unusual and unconventional concepts can be both popular and influential.
