idk if he had any interest in the medium whatsoever, but I would've absoloutely loved to have seen a game made by Kurt Cobain as weird as that sounds.
His artwork looked like it fits right in with LIMBO or ODDWORLD or something:

Kim Krans. I love her art style very much. After looking at it for years, I finally ordered her "Wild Unknown" tarot deck, but she's known for quite a few things. I'd love to see her grim, cerebral, spacey, natural, colorful style translated into a game. Maybe something similar to Journey. Here are a few examples of her work from the deck:
Denis Villenueve. He's been crushing it recently in the films he has made (Bladerunner 2049, Arrival) and a lot of his filmmaking and cinematography pushes boundaries of audience viewing. Ripe for video game collaboration.
Edit: Denis did Arrival, not Revenant as I mistakenly said.

This video make me want Oneohtrix Point Never to do a game soundtrack
(should note the video is lightly........... okay maybe more than lightly NSFW)

This is a good one. Tarantino would make a GREAT game, both thematically and also in terms of writing and storytelling.
I would love for Richard D. James (Aphex Twin) to work on a soundtrack specifically for a game.
Preferably his more ambient stuff.

I want Jack White and Edgar Wright to come together and write and direct a zany narrative focused game with rhythmic combat
Junji Ito x Hideo Kojima, or Junji Ito x FROM Software/Miyazaki. Those two I feel like would make good gameplay use of the horror of Junji Ito.
Would love to have Damso doing the soundtrack for a philosophical/sf game. His weird futurist trap/pop/rap music, along with his beautiful lyrics, would give a strange yet awesome OST for a game set in space with some weird philosophical stuff about individuality, a la Gurren Lagann/Evangelion.
Sam Raimi on a super hero game. His depiction of Spider-Man is so unique. A christian/oedipian interpretation of the character, I would like to see how this kind of stuff would translate in a video game.
Jodorowsky on an adventure/sf game. Just let him go wild. If he was interested in video games, he would create some weird gameplay gimmicks, in a game 100% focused on gameplay, with almost no scenario, since I'm sure he would be the type of guy who would think video games are all about gameplay.

Very cool post; have you read a lot of his work or just an admirer of his art?Wayne Barlowe. Something like these, but interactive:
Denis wasn't behind the Revenant, that was Innaritu. But I was going to say the same, a third Snatcher with Denis involved would be crazy.
Also, Alex Garland. He HAS already written for videogames, but I'd like to see him be a lead director on one someday.
Tom Tykwer. Somehow I feel he has the right mindset and ideas to craft a unique game considering his movies.
The Incal: The Game?
edit:
Alejandro Jodorowsky would be my choice with or without Moebius
Wayne Barlowe. Something like these, but interactive:
This remind me so much of the artwork Steve Hammond did for Shadow of the Beast:

Reminds me of Shadow of the Beast art.
Edit: Great minds think alike it seems.
Alex Garland should write/direct the story for a space station horro/sci-fi game like Prey or System Shock
Lead writer and / or Creative Director: Christopher Nolan (The Dark Knight Trilogy, Inception, Interstellar, Dunkirk)
Thanks for the correction! A bit of googling and I knew his name rang a bell: Ex Machina and Annihilation (directing) and the screenplay for 28 Days Later. What a resume this guy has. Enslaved was a favorite sleeper hit of mine, especially with Andy Serkis involved. I don't even view DmC (2013) as a sour note for him because there was a lot more wrong with that entry than the story, which I felt was competent.
Agreed. I threw Moebius in there because I'm actually reading Incal and really enjoyed Madwoman of the Sacred Heart, plus all of Moebius' work on Jodorowsky's Dune. They make a great team, but Jodorowsky himself would be my pick either way.
This is a really good pick.
Mine would be Gaspar Noe. I don't know what he would come up with but I'm sure it would be mind blowing.
