Atami is city in the Shizuoka prefecture. And Shizuoka literally means Silent Hill. So this could be based in the world of Silent Hill or perhaps the game he wanted to make after PT without the Silent Hill branding.
One other thing I forgot to mention as well is when Kojima was introduced at the VGA's he walked out of the PT door.

Yeah, I forgot to mention that Guillermo de Toro didn't seem to contribute much in terms of story line or visuals. But he has had a past with working with the horror genre, so I too think that it is likely he would be announced as a collaborator for OD.
Kojima loves to put stuff like this in his reveals. The Atami thing could be legit, or a complete red herring. IIRC there were things like this constantly in the Death Stranding development and reveal stuff.
My speculation so far...
1. OD is going to be a spiritual successor to PT. Not cheap horror, but mind bending horror.
2. I think this game will have major differences from chapter to chapter or character to character based on the collaborators.
3. I think this game will be basically watching a streamer play, but gives the spectator some way to contribute without disrupting the game (ie: Death Stranding). This would make sense for the odd "It's new media, it's a game, it's a movie, but completely a game." comment.
