Hideo Kojima Confirmed For Gamescom 2019 Appearance

This week it was revealed that Hideo Kojima will be making an appearance at Gamescom 2019 which will be streamed live for the public. The word came out from the event this week, promoting his appearance for Opening Night Live on August 19th at 11am PDT/2PM EST. No word yet about the content of the show or the format, so who knows how much he'll actually say. But the fact that he'll be on stage to hopefully talk publically about Death Stranding is always fun news.
