Hideo Kojima says that one of his projects is in ‘crunch time’ to fasten development. 

Taking it to Twitter, the industry veteran implied that the studio is in crunch mode. Besides voice recording, tasks like ‘writing comments, explanations, essays, interviews, [and] discussions’ are also taking a lot of time.

However, he’s also looked towards the future and contemplated how much creativity he has left. Kojima argues that he is racing against the clock here.

On the other hand, fans have shown Kojima plenty of support, with some saying his best achievements are still ahead of him.
