Kojima Productions’ “next” project is…? (updated)

The mystery and intrigue started a few days ago with a cryptic email that 1UP received from a “source” with the subject line “T -3 days.” The contents were a URL link to what at the time was a dead area on Konami.jp’s website. Another clue was given in a Famitsu advertisement which only showed a two page spread of some wetlands, a pair of shadowed figures in the tall grass, a house off in the ominous distance and the date of May 18, 2009.

Today (May 14, 2009), the once dead area of Konami.jp’s website evolved into a repetitive Flash movie of the same wetlands in a different area, the ominous clouds now in motion and the sound of howling wind. If you are quick to spot, you can even see the cloud icons as the page is loading.

All we know is that something is about to go down and whatever it is, it’s Kojima Productions next project.
