It comes as no shock that tons of huge names within the gaming business need Kojima Productions beneath their banner, however so long as he’s alive, Hideo Kojima isn’t going to let that occur. He needs his studio to stay an indie studio with out affiliation or backing of anybody firm.

He’s so religious to that indie way of life that the Dying Stranding lead gone on file that he’s rejected a number of of “ridiculously excessive” gives and gives from “around the globe.”
Contemplating his previous and supreme exit of Konami, which ended up outright scrapping the following entry to the extremely standard Silent Hill franchise, Silent Hills, pulling the plug on the playable teaser, P.T., which was a tricky resolution, it is sensible why he’d need all of the management he can to verify his imaginative and prescient of his video games come to life.

“Let me iterate that we’re indies. Now we have no affiliations in any respect and we aren’t backed by anybody.
And daily I’m approached by gives all around the world to purchase our studio. A few of these gives are ridiculously excessive costs, however it’s not that I need cash. I need to make what I need to make. That’s why I create this studio.
As long as I’m alive, I don’t assume I’ll ever settle for these gives.”
