“Navigate a living environment through day and night cycles, natural disasters including earthquakes, sandstorms and forest fires, and Timefall – a rain that instantly ages everything it touches,” the game’s description reads. “To traverse this dangerous landscape, you’ll need to build new types of infrastructure, master specialized equipment, and confront (or evade) the otherworldly creatures that roam the fractured world.”
The game was first announced back at The Game Awards 2022, but had been in development since 2020. According to the game’s composer, the script had to be reworked because Hideo Kojima found that people were liking the game too much during early testing. Kojima reportedly wanted to make the game more polarizing and evoke more emotion.
