OD is an upcoming horror game developed by Kojima Productions and published by Xbox Game Studios. It stars Sophia Lillis, Hunter Schafer and Udo Kier.[2] Hideo Kojima and Jordan Peele served as writers for the game.[3]
According to Kojima, the game will "explore the concept of testing your fear threshold, and what it means to OD on fear."[4] Kojima stated he is "working with Xbox Game Studios and their cloud gaming technology to take on the challenge of creating a very unique, immersive, and totally new style of game — or rather, a new form of media."[5]
Development
The partnership between Kojima Productions and Xbox Game Studios to create a game for Xbox leveraging the power of the cloud was revealed at Xbox & Bethesda Games Showcase 2022.[6] Kojima and Peele officially announced OD at The Game Awards 2023 with a teaser trailer.[7]
2022 leak
In November 2022, two and a half minutes of gameplay were leaked on a live stream recording of a phone and on Twitter, showing a fearful nurse in a dark presumed hospital walking around with a flashlight. At the end, she sits down, looks at the camera and screams, before the screen cuts to black, and cryptic symbols form to say "GAMEOVER" and "OVERDOSE".[8]
