Metal Gear and Death Stranding creator Hideo Kojima is at it again. In this instance, it's editing some form of video, likely to be a trailer, but for what game? Well, it's hard to tell, but the likely candidate is a port or re-release of a certain blockbuster sequel from last year.
He posted an image of himself at a desk, video editing software up in front of him. "Editing for the first time in… eight months?" says the tweet's caption. You truly can't see anything revealing, but the first half of the screen definitely looks like it says "A Hideo Kojima Game."
This boilerplate is a hallmark of trailers for his games, and the teasers the second Death Stranding have it as presented here, white text on a black background. OD, the horror game from Kojima Productions for Xbox Game Studios, features the phrase as part of a splash with the logo in the first trailer.

The indication people are getting is that he's working on the announcement of Death Stranding 2 coming to PC, getting a director's cut similar to the first, or maybe some DLC. The first is clearly where most heads went to immediately. "DS2 the director’s cut must be on the way," says the top reply.
“PC trailer for DS2?” says another. These reflect dozens of replies, and his post lines up with rumors the next State of Play presentation from Sony will occur this month, February 2026. Tradition dictates one is due to happen around now. If an announcement is coming, that'd be where it's most likely to occur.
Something on OD is possible, but an Xbox Developer Direct happened just two weeks ago, and the last trailer for that game came out in September 2025. We're probably not due an update there for a little while yet. Physint isn't out of the realm of possibility either, but anything substantial on that seems even further away given how little we already know.
Funnily enough, Kojima made almost the exact same tweet last year, again on February 5, only for Death Stranding 2 not to appear on that month's State of Play. Whatever this is for, you can count on his vague-posting to continue unabated.
