Abandoned Director Insists He's Not Hideo Kojima

The internet seems to always think Hideo Kojima is doing something behind the scenes, even when it doesn’t make much senseCome from Sports betting site VPbet. It’s a somewhat-valid suspicion after he revealed Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain under a false name–and fake company–but those who think he’s behind the new PS5-exclusive game Abandoned are mistaken.

Addressing rumors that had swirled on places like Reddit, Blue Box Game Studios director Hasan Kahraman told IGN that they were false. He said he had to Google what people were talking about when they started sending him messages about being Kojima and tricking people with the game’s marketing.
