Death Stranding composer working on new unannounced project

The artist Ludvig Forssell shows a photograph in an auditorium, although he does not specify whether or not they are compositions for a future video game.

Ludvig Forssell, a Swedish composer known for his work on Death Stranding and currently an audio director at Kojima Productions, has posted a photo on his personal Twitter account where he claims to be working on a new unannounced project. The artist, who also worked in the past for the soundtracks of Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes and Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain -in that case for the Japanese Konami-, is now immersed in new professional challenges of which has not offered clues.

Forssell assures that this recording, held in an auditorium with several dozen musicians and a variety of instruments, is the first since the COVID-19 pandemic began, a situation that has made him especially happy with the results obtained. We do not know, we insist, if these recordings correspond to a future video game; far from it if it will be for Hideo Kojima’s next project.

Hideo Kojima doesn’t stop: he’s already working on his next video game

After Death Stranding, published in 2019 for PlayStation 4 – it will be backward compatible with PS5 – and this same course on computer under the seal of 505 Games, the Japanese creative has shown over the last few months some suggestive messages and sketches that anticipate his upcoming production, an unknown project that has just begun.

We can highlight that this July it was revealed that he was in talks with the mangaka Junji Ito in the face of a horror video game. After the ill-fated Silent Hills P.T., which never came to fruition and has remained as a “cult demo” of the PlayStation 4 catalog, the horror genre is spinning on Kojima’s head. Somewhat earlier, in April, he declared that he wanted to make a “revolutionary” title. In fact, he commented, “I am confident that I can create something more terrifying than anyone else could.” In November 2019 he already wielded his will to make “the most terrifying game so far.” If you want to take a look at some sketches of his next project, here are some images.

Death Stranding is available for PS4 and PC.
