Hideo Kojima, the creator of the Metal Gear Solid series and director of Death Stranding, says he wants to keep making new video games as he turns 63. Both outlets report that his comments come through a recent social message marking the birthday.

Kojima indicates he is not planning to retire, framing his continued work as an ongoing commitment to game creation. While he restates his desire to keep developing games, he does not provide details about specific upcoming projects. Both reports characterize his remarks as leaving the future direction of his next games largely unspecified, with a cautious tone about what is next.

Across the coverage, the shared focus is that Kojima remains active and motivated in game development despite reaching his early 60s. Differences are mainly in wording and emphasis: one outlet highlights his intent to keep “pouring” energy into creation, while the other stresses that he remains engaged and continues to be reserved about announcements.
