Xbox will publish Physint, expanding its relationship with Kojima Productions beyond OD. The companies announced the agreement on September 9 in an Xbox Wire statement.

A broader partnership

Hideo Kojima described the project as a continuing effort to rethink action espionage. Xbox’s announcement also says the relationship will cover film and television collaborations, extending the companies’ work together beyond games.

The statement leaves several practical questions unanswered. It provides no release date, platform list or gameplay breakdown for Physint. It also does not announce a Game Pass launch. Xbox’s publishing role alone should not be read as confirmation of those details.

What to watch next

For players, the next useful update will be one that shows how Physint plays and identifies where it will be available. For now, this is a business and development announcement: the project has a publishing partner, while its release plans remain unannounced in this statement.
