Abandoned director Hasan Kahraman has recently stated that the rumors surrounding the studio and Hideo Kojima had a negative impact on the game’s development.
Kahraman, who is also the founder of Blue Box Games Studio, stated in a recent interview (via WCCF Tech) that the rumors surrounding his studio and Hideo Kojima “had a negative effect on the development process with a lot of distractions.” However, he is still confident that people will really like the game.
Rumors surrounding the independent Netherlands-based studio began shortly after the game was first announced via the official PlayStation Twitter account and soon spiraled out of control, leading the team at Blue Box Games to release a statement denying the rumors. Things then began to settle down until recently when the dev released a promotional image that some said shared some resemblance to Metal Gear Solid.
Finally, elsewhere in the interview, the video game developer also gave the tiniest of hints towards what we can expect from Abandoned when he said: “I can't reveal much about the game, but I can say that it takes place in a deserted place in America.”
