In Hideo Kojima’s brain, ideas flow and many end up in the trash. If the Japanese designer is known for the franchise Metal Gear and more recently death strandinghe for a time imagined a video game with not-so-nice superheroes, a concept he had to cancel after he started watching a well-known series.
Hideo Kojima indeed said on Twitter what he had in mind a game project with a main character, male or female, investigating the hidden misdeeds of a gang of superheroes. His good friend Mads Mikkelsen was even supposed to have the main role, but after watching a few episodes of the series The Boys on Amazon Prime Videoadapted from the eponymous comics, Hideo Kojima soon realized that his game would be too similar and he gave up on the idea.… for the moment.
The story could thus have ended at this anecdote, but the showrunner from the series Eric Krikpe answered him on Twitter by asking him to come and make a video game The Boys together, stating that he was a big fan of the work of the Japanese designer. A crazy, but enticing idea supported by Antony Starr, who embodies the terrifying Protective in the series ofAmazon.
Good, Discussions on social networks are non-bindingand Hideo Kojima is currently focused on developing a game exclusive to Xboxwhich could be called Overdoseand a sequel to death stranding is also in production. But let’s admit that a game The Boys conceived by Kojima Productions would have great potential. For the moment, we have to be content with the series, the Season 3 is currently airing on Amazon Videothe subscription Prime cost for reminder 49 € per year.
