Kojima uncertain about Physint's PlayStation release and engine choice
Hideo Kojima has expressed uncertainty regarding whether his upcoming espionage title, Physint, will be released on PlayStation platforms. This follows Sony's decision to drop its publishing deal for the game, with Xbox now taking over publishing duties and providing significant technological support. Kojima is also still experimenting with game engines for the project, which is being developed by a small team.
Kojima has not yet decided if he will use the Sony-owned Decima engine, which he previously utilized for Death Stranding, and is considering the possibility of using Unreal Engine 5. PlayStation reportedly canceled its publishing deal for Physint earlier this month, citing budget concerns and missed deadlines, before Xbox picked up the publishing responsibilities.
