The short yet gripping trailer dropped at the awards, showing a collage of different face models uttering confusing yet horrific voice lines. While the trailer itself wasn’t too long, it packed various face models or “Metahumans” that inspired a lot of confusion and terror at the Game Awards 2023.
Speaking at the game awards, Kojima commented that OD will “use Xbox’s cloud gaming to make an immersive experience that no one has seen before.” He further commented that OD will be a new game, it will also be a combination of a movie and a new type of media.
