‘HIDEO KOJIMA – CONNECTING WORLDS’ documentary announced

Hideo Kojima is one of the biggest names in the video games industry, not only thanks to his impressive repertoire of work over the past 3 decades, but also due to his tumultuous time within the industry which saw the creative clash with Konami to rather disastrous effects. Now, a documentary has been announced which will give “rare insight into Hideo Kojima’s childhood as well as his creative process from launching his own independent studio and creating DEATH STRANDING.”

Making the announcement via a press release, Kojima Productions revealed that they have been working on a documentary. Titled ‘Hideo Kojima – Connecting Worlds’ the film will first premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York City, and will be followed up by an on-stage talk from the man himself.

Premiering on the 17th of June, the documentary’s synopsis is as follows: “HIDEO KOJIMA – CONNECTING WORLDS” takes you on a journey into the creative mind of the most iconic video game creator in the world. Featuring appearances from visionary artists and creators such as Guillermo del Toro, Nicholas Winding Refn, Grimes, George Miller, Norman Reedus, Woodkid, Chvrches, and many others, this visually captivating documentary gives a rare insight into Hideo Kojima’s childhood as well as his creative process from launching his own independent studio and creating DEATH STRANDING.”

Hideo Kojima has stated many times in the past that he wants to do more than just make games, and it seems this upcoming documentary represents the start of this new journey. It will be interesting to see what the documentary unveils.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
