Kojima Productions is 10 years old now, and Hideo Kojima has dubbed 2026 as a year for him to focus on "staying grounded and laying solid foundations" as the studio moves closer to its "Third Phase."
Months after Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain was released and right after Kojima and Konami split up, Kojima Productions was formed (not to be confused with Kojima Productions, the former Konami studio). And somehow, that was over 10 years ago. The studio has now established itself with Death Stranding and its sequel and is now gearing up to expand its repertoire with upcoming Hideo Kojima games: OD and Physint.
