Kojima Productions has confirmed that Xbox will publish Physint, extending the studio's relationship with Microsoft beyond the upcoming horror project OD. The announcement follows the end of Physint's previous publishing arrangement with PlayStation. Kojima Productions describes Physint as an action-espionage project intended to push the genre forward, although the game remains years away and detailed gameplay information has not yet been shown. Xbox says the partnership may also expand beyond games into film and television projects. The change is significant because Physint was originally announced in cooperation with Sony as Hideo Kojima's return to the action-espionage genre he helped popularize through Metal Gear.
PHYSINT was originally announced on a PlayStation stage, so the partnership change is a notable shift in the project’s publishing story. Xbox and Kojima Productions also say their relationship will extend into film and television, although the announcement does not provide a release date for the game.
