Knock knock. Who's there? The first proper OD trailer from Hideo Kojima. The first proper OD trailer from Hideo Kojima who? The first proper OD trailer from Hideo Kojima who now appears terrified of doors

Kojima Productions person shared a caller trailer for OD, their forthcoming fearfulness game. Unlike past night's melancholy breadcrumb of Physint coverage, this uncover really has substance. It looks a spot similar P.T., Hideo Kojima's much-mourned teaser for his cancelled Silent Hills project, inasmuch arsenic the crippled appears to beryllium first-person, and the trailer is acceptable successful immoderate benignant of menacing residential building. The full video is pervaded by the fearfulness of thing trying to get in, arsenic expressed by the rubric "Knock". You tin ticker it below, unless you're excessively scared.

Are you excessively scared? I'm atrocious to marque airy of your perfectly tenable tendency to debar sources of hostility and alarm. Here, let maine to transcribe. We spot done the eyes of a young pistillate played by Sophia Lillis, arsenic she enters a windowed country with rainfall and trees beyond. There are immoderate institutional-looking chairs - possibly this is different fearfulness crippled sanitarium? - and a tiny makeshift altar by 1 window, with a clump of mismatched candles and an eerie post-it of a staring eye. Some of the candles look similar distressed babies. The babies callback Death Stranding, though nary of them are successful jars. Lillis begins lighting candles utilizing a matchbox emblazoned with the connection "MISSING" and a drafting of an airplane.

The play situation besides puts maine successful caput of Silent Hill 4: The Room. Sorry, I skipped implicit a spot successful my statement above: fto maine flashback astir 60 seconds. There's an opening country of a large reddish ornamental doorway with smaller arched portals carved into it, and a miniature sealed treble doorway astatine the apical with golden foil flourishes. Unlike the doorway successful Silent Hill 4, this doorway isn't chained shut.

Somebody slides a reddish greeting paper done the jamb with a nightmare drafting of a look connected 1 side, consisting mostly of eyes. On the different broadside determination is an acquisition to "light fires" and "celebrate" thing blurred out. Also, immoderate vaguely alchemical imagery. Other, partially redacted trailer substance refers to rituals, curses, a 3D scan of a building, and direful events 10 years ago.

Skip guardant again to Lillis lighting candles. There's a sound astatine the doorway down her. She carries connected lighting candles. The knocking intensifies. Lillis lights a candle that resembles a baby's screaming head, and it goes each crimson and icky. The unseen doorway opens. Lillis is earnestly not keen connected immoderate is coming done the door, which she refuses to look at. The trespasser sounds damp and slithery. The oculus connected the post-it opens wide. Then, we power to a head-on presumption of Lillis gurning tearfully. The Thing looming down her grabs her head, and we slice to black. How precise OD.

I bash bask these parts of the KojiGame uncover cycle, erstwhile the selling deals nevertheless showily successful awesome and metaphor. The elusiveness was portion of P.T.'s charm, and inevitably, I statesman to interest astir however the developers mightiness spoil things by unredacting the backstory and reducing the eyes, the babe candles, and the doorway made of doors to pieces of literal characterisation and world-building.

Despite having virtually conscionable written a portion whining that Kojima Productions haven't told america overmuch astir Physint, I americium present going to anticipation that they don't stock excessively overmuch astir OD. I know, I americium a carnal of some presumption and contradiction. That's me knocking astatine the door, but I can't enactment retired whether I truly privation to travel in.

The trailer is from Kojima Productions' large livestream past night. Elsewhere successful the show, Kojima assured that OD is "not a crippled astir lighting candles". Please, Kojima, nary guns.
