PS5: Kojima Productions bought by Sony? The hideo boss takes the floor after fire to the internet

No later than yesterday, some rumors suggested that Kojima Productions was about to be bought by Sony Interactive Entertainment. Why ? Simply because the new banner of PlayStation Studios - in which licenses developed by developers frist party \ - was entitled to a small facelift, including the appearance of Sam Bridges, the hero of Death Stranding. Faced with the swirls generated by this rapprochement potential, Hideo Kojia decided to speak on Twitter. And the least we can say is that it's clear, net and precise. "_I am sorry for the misunderstanding, but Kojima Productions was and will remain an independent studio", "he says. The fact that the "Death Stranding" brand is the property of Sony Interactive Entertainment probably explains why the character embodied by Norman Reedus has been a place on said banner.

In any case, Kojima-san's denial raises rumors that Kojima Productions would work on an exclusive game to Microsoft. Moreover, Jeff Grubb, the journalist of Venturebeat, who was the first to speak it last year, ensures that the deal between the two parties is still relevant, without knowing for the moment what he is 'acts exactly. However, it is still good to remember that before denying the crazy rumor, Hideo Kojima had participated in putting oil on the fire by sharing the banner on his Twitter and Instagram account, without any legend, leaving Planer. doubt as to a possible redemption. The man behind the Saga Metal Gear Solid has always loved playing with the mysteries, but he quickly turned off the fire he himself turned on, history not to leave doubts too much to remain independent. Yes, but until when?

Recently, Gematsu confided that Sony Interactive Entertainment had solicited Kojima Productions to develop the next Silent Hill, with a financial hand at the key. This thesis joins the one that Hideo Kojima is at work on a horrifying title, knowing that Akira Yamaoka, the iconic composer of the series, had indicated last year that his next project concerned a game expected by the fans. And oddly, this interview with al-hub has been withdrawn since, Konami obviously attesting not to be at the origin of the maneuver. In short, if we make the sum of the rumors, Kojima Productions would be on two projects, and it is precisely what the boss confirmed at Famitsu in December.
