Backed by Xbox and built on Unreal Engine 5, the project leans into sound-driven horror with no release date.

Overview

  • The new “Knock” teaser emphasizes candlelit rituals, dark corridors and hyperreal expressions to underline OD’s ritualistic horror tone.
  • Microsoft’s Phil Spencer says Xbox is deeply supporting production, with technical work focused on Unreal Engine 5 rather than Decima.
  • Jordan Peele is collaborating on the project, with Sophia Lillis leading a cast that includes Hunter Schafer and Udo Kier.
  • Hideo Kojima notes real-world location scanning for heightened realism and hints at an exceptionally intense experience for players.
  • No launch window was given; coverage indicates Xbox Series X|S and PC are expected, with cloud integration still signaled as an aim of the concept.
