The PlayStation 5 isn't yet a year old and the quality of its exclusive titles is already quite impressive. We've seen the likes of Demon's Souls, Returnal, and Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart hit the next-gen console from Sony, and more are coming soon. One of the more intriguing titles that are set to release on the PS5, Abandoned, is stirring up some significant speculation, after a series of tweets from its indie developers. Is Kojima Up To His Old Tricks Once Again? Kojima pulling the strings behind an unusual game reveal wouldn't be the first time it would happen.
We already covered Abandoned earlier this year. The game is a photo-realistic first-person survival sim that's currently being developed by BLUE BOX Game Studios.
Almost immediately after the game's reveal, fans speculated that it was Hideo Kojima's next project in disguise. Many pointed out the similarities between Abandoned and Kojima's canceled project, Silent Hills. This included the haunting atmosphere and what looks like some intense survival horror gameplay.
Another thing of note about Abandoned is that Sony Interactive Entertainment is publishing it. The game even received its own post on the PlayStation Blog. Meanwhile, the developers are claiming that Abandoned will run at 4K resolution and 60 frames per second on the PS5.
If you take a look at how good Abandoned looks with its photo-realistic graphics, it seems an awful lot to accomplish for a small team of developers. T he thing that really fueled the rumors though, was the developers of Abandoned themselves.
