Physint

It's, it's, uh-

Physint, isn't it?

Is it Physint?

Isn't it Physint? Pheasant?

Pheasant.

Pheasant.

But, like, it's, it's the way they handled it, and obviously Sony, um, not the most popular at the moment because of other things they've done involving physical media, which we'll, we'll get to.

Yeah.

Um, Microsoft is giving King their Microsoft Casual Games business, which is Solitaire and Mahjong and Minesweeper, and all of that stuff.

So, um, [clears throat] the Xbox game studios, I'm about to pull up the chart, uh, remaining after all of this restructure is down to Playground, inXile, The Coalition, and whatever Xbox decides to publish, like Hideo Kojima's Physint.

So, uh, I think it's much better, and shout-out to Klobrille.

He's always there for a great graphic.

Um, he stated in his, uh, in his briefing update that Kojima Productions and Death Stranding were both profitable.

It's a profitable studio and that was a profitable project.

Says Physint was canceled by Sony via Zoom, which is insane.

I think they can, uh, I think very infamously they can see each other through the window.

I think he just left.

Their relationship broke up, and now they are friends with Xbox over Physint, a game that Sony tried to shut down and lie about it being shut down.

They sure did.

It is now an Xbox exclusive.

He- He couldn't let them play in his face like that.

He said, "No, no, no, no.

You all were going to cancel Physint, and I wasn't having it." Yeah.

So big Asha came through and was like- Big Asha [laughs] ... "Look, we got Microsoft money.

He's one of the few people.

He confirmed that Bill Skarsgård will lead, um, Physint, Kojima Productions' upcoming aspi- I can't even talk, action espionage game.

They dropped a campaign trailer for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare IV, due October 23rd, 2026, which again is not my thing.

But Mads Mikkelsen is teased as the major antagonist.

But likely...

Also, y- you know, the other, the other thing that I saw a lot of people talking about and, and even I talked about, like, last week is, like, they just signed a deal with Kojima for Physint.

Yeah.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, I don't...

Anyway I mean, it's not like Physint is coming anytime soon.

OD isn't even done yet.

It's like, you know, it's, it's not...

They, they've made so many cuts now.

Um, they signed Kojima in the middle of all of...

in, in, like, right in between all of these cuts, they picked up Physint because it kind of fell into their lap a little bit.

And, um, and that's, you know, that's a, that's a big deal, I guess.

Of course they weren't, you know, actually getting most of the project done.

If people think that Physint was behind all of a sudden just because, you know, he's a bad developer...

Th- all these people are fake fans, by the way.

Right? They turn their back on Kojima.

...

they turn their back on Kojima because th- they see from their Lord and Savior, Jason Schreier, who is a complete you, you know what.

Um, but like just because he says something, right, it, it's gospel all of a sudden, right? Uh, but no, no, let's forget about the writers' strike that happened that also interfered with Physint and Audatex and a lot of big other studios that work with, you know, motion capture and that.

Right? Let's forget about that.
