Kojima to Reveal Future Projects at ‘Beyond the Strand’

Kojima Productions has announced that it will reveal a glimpse of future projects at its upcoming Beyond the Strand showcase, scheduled as part of the studio’s 10th anniversary celebrations. The event comes shortly after the release of Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, which launched globally on June 26, 2025, leaving players eager to see what the studio has planned next.

The most likely candidate for a major update is OD, the mysterious project being developed in collaboration with Xbox Game Studios. Built on Microsoft’s Azure technology, OD has been described as a cloud-native experiment exploring new interactive formats. Details have been scarce since its initial reveal, making the anniversary event a timely moment for a deeper look.

Speculation also points to new intellectual properties potentially entering development now that the Death Stranding sequel is out in the world. Kojima Productions has expressed interest in branching into horror, experimental narrative games, and multimedia crossovers, which could see the studio expand further into film, television, or transmedia collaborations. Recent reports of a Death Stranding film adaptation indicate those ambitions are moving forward.

With the release cycle for On the Beach winding down, the anniversary showcase represents a turning point for Kojima Productions. The studio has the opportunity to chart its path for the next decade, moving from its defining franchise into uncharted creative territory. Fans will be watching closely to see if OD finally takes shape, or if the event teases entirely new projects that push the boundaries of interactive storytelling once again.
