"A Hideo Kojima game, OD explores the concept of testing your fear threshold, and what it means to OD on fear--while blurring the boundaries of gaming and film," reads the description for the game.

According to Kojima, his studio, Kojima Productions, is collaborating with Xbox Game Studios to develop a unique and immersive game that has never been seen before. They are using the cloud gaming technology of Xbox Game Studios to make the game.

"It is a game, don't get me wrong, but it's also a movie, and at the same time, a new form of media," Kojima said.

All three recite a peculiar line, "The hungry purple dinosaur ate the kind, zingy fox, the jabbering crab, and the mad whale and started vending and quacking."
