Kojima Productions: History and Key Facts

Kojima Productions Co., Ltd. is a Japanese video game development and film production studio founded in 2015 by Hideo Kojima, creator of the Metal Gear franchise. It is the spiritual successor to a production team inside Konami also known as Kojima Productions originally founded in 2005. The independent Kojima Productions has a slightly altered Japanese name and is based in Shinagawa, Tokyo.

The studio partnered with publisher Sony Interactive Entertainment to develop and release their first game, Death Stranding, in 2019. That same year, the studio announced their plans to enter the film production industry. Their second game and collaboration with Sony, Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, was released in 2025. The studio is currently developing the horror game OD and the "action-espionage" title Physint with Xbox Game Studios, alongside co-producing three Death Stranding adaptations: a live-action feature film with A24, an animated feature film in partnership with ABC Animation and Lyrical Animation, and an anime television series in collaboration with E&H Production and Disney+.
