The COVID-19 pandemic has given people a lot of time to think about life. One of them is Silent Hill and Gravity Rush’s creator, Keiichiro Toyama.
Toyama is a veteran developer who has previously worked at Sony Japan and Konami. Turning 50 and the woeful year, together, pushed him to think about where he sees himself a few years down the line.
After working for over 20 years in Sony, the developer finally decided to move on to something fresher; something he could call his own. Therefore, with the help of two colleagues Kazunobu Sato and Junya Okura, he started his own development studio. The trio founded Bokeh Game Studio on August 13, but waited till December to announce it publicly.

During the interview, Toyama explained, “an action-adventure game that will appeal to fans of my previous work.”
He also added that the game will have battles and story elements which will only make the player experience much more immersive. Moreover, while comparing the upcoming game to the previous title they worked on, Toyama described, “if anything, this will be more of a horror-oriented game. But we will focus on making this a broader entertainment experience, rather than a hardcore horror game.”
