Production on OD Resumes Amid Delays
Hideo Kojima announced at the 2026 Tokyo Game Show that development on his new horror anthology, OD, has returned to schedule after last‑year setbacks.
The SAG‑AFTRA strike and the sudden death of actor Udo Kier stopped performance capture and ADR sessions. Production resumed this year, with the team reporting a steady push forward.
Cast Highlights and New Gameplay Mechanics
Kojima praised the casting of Sophia Lillis and Hunter Schafer, noting that both delivered “intense and outstanding performances” that add depth to OD’s chilling atmosphere.
He teased a hidden system within the game that assists players who fear easily, describing OD as a fresh experience that “tests the thresholds of fear.”
Future Teasers and Release Outlook
A cinematic teaser from last year, featuring Lillis, has kept audiences on the edge, while a screenshot of Schafer in darkness circulated this year. The release date remains undisclosed; Kojima’s team plans to share more details as the project matures.
