Cloned Japanese

The end of May was remembered not only by the screening of a new epic trailer with the release date of Death Stranding, but also by the news of Hideo Kojima's involvement, no less, in a genetic engineering project for the artificial cultivation of children on a massive scale in Japan.

The "sensational" news came from Brazil, where a post with the headline "Japan is already creating children in its laboratories" was posted among users of the WhatsApp messenger popular in the country. The text of the message explained that the doctor of biomedicine Hideo Kojima began mass rearing of babies in artificial wombs to cover the low birth rate in Japan. In addition, those who spread the news also claimed that about three thousand genetically modified children are allegedly already in the process of being trained for use as labor in factories around the world.

In support of these words, a picture of a "scientist" holding a flask with a baby inside was given, although in reality it is only a replica of a capsule with a Bridge Baby from the collector's edition of Death Stranding. The photo was posted by Kojima himself on Twitter a few days ago.

If you are at least a little interested in the gaming industry, you probably read the article with a smile, but in Brazil, where the problem of spreading fake news and disinformation through online messengers is extremely acute, the largest local online publication G1 had to publish an official refutation.
