Hololive Vtuber Usada Pekora recently visited the Kojima Productions studio offices, and Hideo Kojima shared a post on his Japanese social media account. The tweet included a picture of himself and the model of the virtual YouTuber, both posing alongside the studio’s insignia Ludens statue.
In return to the post from Hideo Kojima, Usada Pekora thanked the developers at Kojima Productions for the opportunity to visit the studio and for the precious experience. In recent years, many celebrities and popular media figures have visited Kojima Productions. Among the many visitors, some of them have ended up as cameo appearances in the studio’s first title, Death Stranding.
With Usada Pekora’s recent visit to the studio, there’s a non-zero possibility that the Hololive Vtuber might appear as one such cameo in the upcoming sequel. In fact, this would not be the first time that Pekora appears as a cameo character in a game, as she voiced and appeared as a unique Killing Machine monster in Dragon Quest Treasures.
As a reminder, Kojima Productions is currently working on various titles including Death Stranding 2: On The Beach, a sequel to the 2019 game, the new horror game OD developed in collaboration with filmmaker Jordan Peele for Xbox consoles, and Physint, a new action espionage title published by Sony Interactive Entertainment.
In addition, Kojima Productions recently announced that the studio will have a presence at Tokyo Game Show 2024 on September 29 with a special panel discussion about the upcoming game Death Stranding 2.
Death Stranding 2: On The Beach is currently in development for the PlayStation 5 and will appear in 2025.
