Hideo Kojima has insisted Death Stranding was a sales success, and has enabled Kojima Productions to fund its unannounced second project.
In an interview with Japanese website Livedoor (translated by VGC), the Metal Gear Solid creator said: “We’ve absolutely crossed the line we needed to cross to be in the black, including recovering development costs, so I’d call it a successful result.
“We still have the PC release coming up, and we’ve secured enough to begin preparing for our next project, so there’s no need to worry.”
