Kojima's upcoming Action Espionage project with Sony seems like a natural progression after his split with Konami, aiming to weave his narrative prowess with cutting-edge gameplay; it's like he never really left the genre but is coming back to give us the evolution we didn't know we needed. The lack of a release date does amp up the intrigue, suggesting Kojima is layering this game with his signature detail-oriented craftsmanship, which is always worth the wait for fans of deep, cinematic gaming experiences.
