Rumor: Kojima & Suda 51's new project...

[Icarus Moonsight]

... just might be a new Snatcher! Here's the link where the scuttlebutt originated and yes it's from the horse's mouth.

I'm gonna be very anxious until we find out what these two are up to. :D

:hmm: Not exactly "new", then, is it?

[Icarus Moonsight]

Don't know how you can say that. We don't know what "it" is for certain yet. If it were just a re-release of Snatcher wtf is Suda doing in there? My money, and hopes, are on a new game involving the world of Snatcher. I'm sure whatever trip these two can dream-up together is going to be well worth taking regardless.

Cliff notes version:


Kojima and Suda 51 both reacted, "Ah yes, Snatcher," alluding to something. "Oh, should we announce it here?" "Maybe later, during Hidechan Radio?"

Sorry that should have been posted earlier.

Yeah unfortunatley it looks like this will not be what everyone hoped it would.
(from junkerhq.net)

During the Snake vs Zombie event held this weekend hints were made about a Snatcher related project when Mikami said his favorite Kojima game was Snatcher. Suda and Kojima made a remark about making an announcement related to Snatcher.
Fortunately Project-Itoh was kind enough to give us some extra information about what the project really is:

This is the famous "Project S" that Kojima and Suda have beed talking about.
It is a "web-radio-drama" (Japanese only...)
It may be a Snatcher prequel, before Gillian came to Neo-Kobe.
The protagonist is Jean Jack Gibson.
Suda Gohichi will write the script, status is first-draft.
If you feel like it, join the discussion at the boards
