We found out Who, but we don't know Where: Kojima has confirmed Elle Fanning's involvement in the new Kojima Productions project, but continues his intrigue
One of Kojima's puzzles was solved: at PAX Australia 2022 the Japanese game designer confirmed that the photo puzzle with the question "Who am I?" and a darkened female silhouette is indeed Elle Fanning. She was identified by users long before Hideo Kojima's confession.
However, this does not answer another question: "Where am I?" - An image with this caption repeatedly, but with a female silhouette instead of a black background, appeared on Kojima's Twitter.

It's already obvious that Elle Fanning will be the main star of the next game, but who the other woman is is unclear. It's probably Margaret Qualley, who played the role of Mom in Death Stranding, and her participation in the new project has been hinted at by insiders.
It's not clear which project these allusions refer to: whether it's a sequel to Death Stranding, or a new game in collaboration with Microsoft, or the third option. But we must admit that Kojima knows how to intrigue.
It is assumed that at The Game Awards 2022 we will finally hear the announcement of the mysterious game from the Genius.
