According to a Weekly Famitsu interview translated by IGN, the first of Hideo Kojima’s upcoming unannounced projects could hit as soon as this year. The famed developer currently has four projects in the pipeline. While nothing is known or revealed about the project, rumors suggest that the overseas-aimed title is a first-person shooter.

The interview also carries some other interesting stuff, including a part where Kojima reveals that he is addicted to Valve’s recent zombie shooter Left 4 Dead.

“I’m addicted to Left 4 Dead right now, but people say to me that that game would never work in Japan…maybe I should quit being Japanese,” he said and laughed.

Kojima also talks about how Japanese developers have fallen behind their Western counterparts, among other things.
