That's the thing. If Abandoned was a genuine indie then Sony would lean into it on the indie site given the hype generated or have killed it dead if it was a blatant fraud or lone guy in over his head.

This "mystery" treatment and the weird way the game site outlets interviewed Hasan seems to point in one direction (that this is something else).

If the silence continues during/after Gamescom next week then I might start to think it really is a lone guy blagging it and Sony/Epic/Nuare amazingly just let him get away with using their names for so long.

US PSN? Try to upload it again if you would.

can’t figure out how to rotate it lol

Yeah bro its obvious this is something more,if it wasn't they would have stepped in. Which is why I keep saying this endless debate is pointless. All we can do is wait until something comes up again. I doubt it will continue after Gamescom,its already ran too long in my opinion and most others I talk to.

Are you on the beta program?

 

[DeepSpace5D]

I decided to check my version. I have a US PSN account and have Abandoned fully updated.

Seems to be the beta OS gives it a different thumbnail.

 

[ParaSeoul]

I asked before but did any other games change their thumbnails on the beta program?

 

[trikster40]

Are you on the beta program?

Yeah, which I quite like by the way. The new trophy listing is sooo much better.

I’m on the latest version of Abandoned from last week when they updated it.

I’m not sure why the thumbnail would be different for beta users. Any other games/apps out there with different thumbnails?

 

[ParaSeoul]

Dude I just asked this lmao.

 

[8BiTw0LF]

Has anyone else this weird untitled download running on their ps5?

I think it's an error. I had the same, but when it finished it said Observer Redux was updated.

in my case it was a "hidden" PS4 update for Hitman ...exactly as others had guessed

I also wonder why Hasan or Bluebox games appearently don’t Twitter anymore since the teaser release. The only think we heard is trough very strange interviews.

i also read that some people contacted Hasans sister and she said that he is real. However the tweet is a little bit strange, she just said he is real and that he is not Kojima, but she doesn’t directly rule out a cover up. Also if this is all legit, it went by far out of hand, if people bug his family members, but still Sony and Kojima remain silent.

That must be something more just imagine the backlash at Sony if it is just an indie for not stepping in at all.

If it’s real, this thread is only just getting started.

Only if this is real, though.

Apparently this is just reusing some artwork and sounds from an Iranian album but they somehow used a verified psn code for marketing campaigns?

Wut?

Abandoned Will Be Free For Players Who Purchased Blue Box's Previous, Unfinished Game

Blue Box also plans to offer its previous game, The Haunting, for free alongside Abandoned's gameplay reveal trailer.

www.gamespot.com

"Kahraman says those who purchased the early access version of The Haunting originally will soon be able to fill out a form and provide proof of purchase on the Blue Box website to receive a free copy of Abandoned."

So... If this is true it's the most scammy thing so far. Do they still sell early access to that title?

Kojima retweeted it, does not have to mean anything but I think it's a given that he at least speak about Death Stranding DC.

DC already got a State of Play appearance,would be strange for a re-release to get an appearance at two events.

I'm guessing the same. The first Director's Cut video was through Geoff.

I have the tinfoil hat on that an Abandoned announcement will happen and announced at a later stage in the show with no link to Kojima. It will continue to be cryptic.

Have you seen your avatar mf

 

[baphomet]

We all know Kojima is working on multiple projects.

None of which have anything to do with Abandoned.

Yeah, there is nothing strange about the timing so shortly before Gamescom. But let me guess you are one of those who dream of a Microsoft exclusive horror game from Kojima instead.

How do we know that?

We don't,he mentioned he has one in development,just one according to articles from last year.

Apart from death stranding directors cut, he definitely has a new game coming for ps5 imo. Not too sure about that xbox game but grubb does have a decent track record.

 

[rofif]

How do I get on beta program ?

Don't worry team fake, everything is okay and it's just another coincidence.

It is.
There were rumors that Kojima was making a horror game.
Why it would be silent hill is beyond me.
It's his own invented game

 

[baphomet]

Seems like you've missed the last 260 pages. This has been said from the beginning. The entire thread is if Kojima is behind Abandoned, not if Kojima is working on a project.

How do we know that?

Because it's Kojima. He's always working on something, and we have enough info to know there's at least one project near announcement.

Hes working on ONE project,you said multiple projects. And you literally pulled that out of your ass.

What are you even talking about? Yes, he's working on multiple projects. You think he's been sitting with his thumb up his ass since Death Stranding released? Because we know he's working on at least one other project not including Death Stranding DC.

All the articles say he hopes to work on multiple smaller titles while he focuses on one big game.

Kojima Productions is Planning to Work on Multiple Projects, Including One "Big" Game

Hideo Kojima has often stated his desire to work on other forms of media. Now that Death Stranding is out, it sounds like his studio's been freed up to work ...
