The announcement of the Kojima podcast featuring remarks and debates from the Metal Gear developer himself seemed to be a prudent move forward for the brilliant creator, however, the podcast itself is presently only accessible in Japanese and only for Japanese Audible subscribers.

Other noteworthy aspects of Kojima’s personal game production expertise include the use of LEGO pieces to build a 3D depiction for the early Metal Gear Solid titles, detailed in earlier interviews.
The Genius Was Aiming For Cinema
Though he’s been working on video games since 1986, Hideo Kojima originally aspired to work in the film industry. Kojima’s masterpieces are known for their prolonged sequences, so this may not come as a surprise to anybody.

Because of this, he has been dubbed an “auteur” in the filmmaking community because of his willingness to experiment with merging video games and movies.
In the past, Kojima has adopted podcasts to talk about his work. Radioverse has been likened to Kojima’s previous radio-style podcast, “Hideraji,” by several fans. Several voice actors as well as other members of the production team discussed upcoming Metal Gear titles including Peace Walker, MGS4, and MGS5.
Despite a sluggish start of the podcast, Kojima and his collaborators have already acquired a large number of listeners due to their high-profile status.
