Hideo Kojima says Jordan Peele is just one of the big names working on his upcoming horror game, and that he calls the group 'The Avengers'

Hideo Kojima says Jordan Peele isn't the only big name working on his upcoming horror game, and is actually a member of a team that he likes to call 'The Avengers.'
