Very little is currently known about this new project, but the job listing provides some very small details with the mention of 3D model production for weapons, gadgets, vehicles and mechanics, and event control systems in role-playing games.

Kojima Productions' first title is Death Stranding. The game, released on PlayStation 4 last year and PC a few months back, ended up being one of the most divisive games of the generation, due to its unique approach to the open-world formula.

With production values that are through the roof and an extremely engaging story, Death Stranding is among Hideo Kojima's best games. The moment-to-moment gameplay, however, falls short due to its repetitiveness, and the long stretches without any real action make it difficult to recommend the game to all open-world fans. Death Stranding is something different, and only approaching it with an open mind will reveal the brilliance of its themes, its characters and its hauntingly beautiful dystopian world.
