While concrete details remain scarce, industry insiders suggest the game could debut as an Xbox Series X|S exclusive, potentially tying into Xbox Game Pass on day one. For those tracking progress, Windows Central's report offers insight into Kojima's ongoing collaboration with Microsoft Studios. As we await the next major reveal, speculations swirl around Kojima's signature blend of cinematic storytelling and mind-bending themes—a combination that promises to make OD one of the year's most anticipated releases.
