Earlier this week, the PlayStation Studios web site was up to date so that the banner picture included an image of Sam Bridges from Death Stranding. Yesterday, Death Stranding designer and Kojima Productions founder Hideo Kojima tweeted an image mentioned banner.

People then received excited, pondering this wordless tweet meant that Sony had acquired Kojima Productions. It prompted sufficient of a fuss that Kojima did a follow-up tweet saying, hey, sorry, that hasn’t occurred.

I’m sorry for the misunderstanding, however KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS has been and can proceed to be an impartial studio. https://t.co/2M0n4ogRaa

“I’m sorry for the misunderstanding, however Kojima Productions has been and can proceed to be an impartial studio,” mentioned Kojima within the tweet.

Death Stranding was funded by Sony and launched as a PlayStation 4 unique, and extra lately its Director’s Cut likewise launched as a PlayStation 5 unique. It’s not unreasonable for Sony to stay it in a banner to promote the sorts of sport they make – though its proximity to the PlayStation Studios emblem can be a good explanation for confusion. Folks over at ResetEra noticed the change and have a comparability to the previous banner, when you’re curious. I’d take Sam Porter Bridges over Concrete Genie’s wobbly movement controls any day.

The acquisition hearsay mill could be triggered by a light-weight breeze at this level, given each enterprise appears to be hoovering up each different enterprise of late. While Microsoft have led the cost, Sony have been at it too, shopping for Destiny builders Bungie earlier this yr. Kojima’s tweets are additionally often over-analysed as a result of, I dunno, he made the conspiracy-dense Metal Gear Solid video games I suppose.

Obviously I’m eager that Kojima Productions stay impartial. Death Stranding got here to PC not too lengthy after its preliminary console launch. Given the a lot higher lag between Sony’s personal studios launching a brand new sport and them bringing that sport to PC, any acquisition would appear to be dangerous information for us.
