im confused. i thought bluepoint is rumored to handle the mgs and silent hill remake?

now who are blue box studios? last months there was a tech demo of 'abandoned' game that tried to rip off that kojima horror demo. but abandoned wasn't supposed to be silent hill or pt?

now we have S^L tweet storm?

seems like the lamers at blue box are hoping to ride onto bigger names to make a name for themselves

WATCH THIS PEOPLE! Think about the depths that Kojima was willing to go to when he rolls out a new game. THIS IS INSANE!!!!!! He hired a white European guy with bandages all on his face to do an interview with Geoff Keighley man!!!!! Like, COME ON!! With Kojima ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Remember how many people thought that his face was real time graphics and not a video? 😛

THEORY FROM REDDIT


BlueBox Games is located in the Netherlands. You're probably saying to yourself, "okkayy? How is this relevant?" We'll, if you look on the back of Sam's gear in Death Stranding he happens to have a sticker of the Netherland's flag. Moreover, some of the merch that Kojima & co. wear include the Netherland's flag as well.

Next, let's take a look at BlueBox's YouTube Channel. Take a look at the header. Does that not look like a vista from Death Stranding? Take a look at their logo on display as well, does that not look like a carbon copy of the PS Studios logo?

Furthermore, if you take a look the game studios in the Netherlands- BlueBox is suspiciously absent from that list. Guerilla Games, however, is on that list.

Let me get this straight - BlueBox opened up in 2014, have only one game to show for and you're expecting me to believe Sony is laying out the red carpet just cause? Not even a fully developed game either, one that's in early access. Also, their own game isn't being developed by them anymore(!)- it's been handed off to another developer.

Weird.

Lastly, I want everyone to know that Kojima has pulled off something similar to this in the past. Take a look at this tweet from 2012. I know a lot of you will point directly to BlueBox's outright denial - but again, Kojima has done this in the past.

"During a Q&A session on his trip to Dubai, Hideo Kojima laughed when questioned about The Phantom Pain, and said that while he saw its resemblance to Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes, it was being developed by Moby Dick Studio and that he was not involved."

This is so clearly a Kojima troll account. I am not buying that this has nothing to do with Kojima.

It looks so stupid it has to be Kojima.

Just wanted to point to another coincidence:

P.T. was released 12th of August 2014.
Blue Box was founded 12th of August 2015.

This 100% is Silent Hill and Kojima.
The weird ass trailer liking to Metal Gear in a more than obvious way at the Keighley presentation to me seals the deal.

It's too many years since the Konami break up, clearly Sony has either gotten the IP rights and gave Kojima back his toys or Konami will just get a cut of the sales.

I'll eat my own feces if this isn't all a Kojima troll :messenger_grinning_squinting:

That’s a bold bet.

I don’t believe one word they say, like people said how could they get inside the PlayStation presentation. Does someone really think they approach Sony and say: sorry but we are completely unknown but can you please show this teaser in your show for our game? By the way, the teaser has nothing to do with the actual game but please show it…

doubt is kojima, at least for the mgs remake. he is bored of metal gear.

also doubt its silent hills since konami won't release the IP to him. kojima i believe is working on a horror game and it's better if it has nothing to do with silent hill

even then, i do not see a future where mgs1 needs a remake. the gameplay mechanics are too dated for a full priced remix

Where do you come up with comments like this?

It's worth noting that their YT channel says they joined January 2015. Twitter as well. So Crunchbase is wrong. Maybe that's the date the business filing was completed, but they existed in social media before that.

I'm sure others must have already pointed out in this thread but this alligns with what Yamaoka teased not too long ago:
Asked when we can expect his next project to be announced, Yamaoka responded, “When, I wonder… I think I might be able to talk about it around the summer or so… (Summer this year?) That’s right… But I’m quite sure it will be the one you’ve been waiting for, Mutlaq [the interviewer].”

Then later Al-Hub has pulled the interview "by request of an unspecified party."

More then that, Sony is giving them a PS5 app for trailers and hype? A studio with no portfolio doesn't get that and a teaser trailer just for lulz. I think we can expect this to be a significant IP. A significant PS5 IP coming this holiday means that's no small team.

Hasan (Hassan) Kahraman can be translated from Arabic to mean good/handsome hero. That sounds like some Japanese character label IMO. HK being Kojima's initials really makes me feel like this is the spiritual successor to Silent Hill. For obvious reasons, they can't use that name anymore, so they're building on the work put into PT, and possibly the continued collaboration with Reedus and Del Toro, to finally release the project under a new label, Survival.

Yeah, I'm officially embracing the speculation now, but it totally jives with what we're seeing from Sony on this. A dedicated app? We saw that before with the PT demo. Releasing this year with no prior reveal? This game has had a lot of development put into it already then. To look as good as the teaser, it means budget and talent are behind it. This is Kojima's Silent Hills rebadged, folks. BELIEVE!

It’s still possible that Konami will allow them to make a Silent Hill Game and get part of the Profits. Sure Kojima and Konami are probably still not on good terms, but why would Konami object to free money if they have no interest to make a game in this franchise by themselves apart of perhaps some pachinko machines…

But Yamaoka works on tonnes of games. Even little indie things that no one really pays attention to.
