You may have seen a recent article that mentions KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS, speculating on the reasons for the change in publishing partners for PHYSINT.
Normally, we would not comment on unsubstantiated speculation on the internet, but these aspersions around our relationship with PlayStation, the commercial performance of the DEATH STRANDING franchise, and the broader production planning and investment for PHYSINT, have reached beyond the studio and have touched our fans, our creative partners, and colleagues we have worked alongside with for three decades.
None of the claims written came from any official or on-the-record source and as such we encourage you to take them with a dose of scepticism.
Make no mistake, this was a serious situation for the studio with a range of potentially significant implications. While we recognise that the article may have caused alarm, we want to reassure you all, for the record: that the studio is in a healthy, profitable state, development for PHYSINT continues to move forward with XBOX, and our relationship with PlayStation remains strong.
Thank you for your continued support,
KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS
I had the immense pleasure to interview @ryancoltlevy at @CBR and was blown away by his passion for CSM, anime, acting, & Denji as a character.
Thank you Ryan for an amazing talk! This was a real career highlight for me.

Glad to see @ryancoltlevy actually understands Denji. Even more excited to see the film again this weekend for the English Dub. Also, I think I speak for everyone when I say I’m hyped for “Darkness” too…

Earlier this month, I had the honor of sitting down with the artist behind @gachiakuta_PR’s new OP, @moricalliope!
We talked about her new song, "LET'S JUST CRASH," as well as how her collaboration with #Gachiakuta came about. Highly recommend the read!

We desperately need videogame fans to start becoming art snobs. It's crazy how videogames are the only artform where older works are treated like they're archaic and unplayable. Including journalists, critics and game developers. Get pretentious! Get annoying! Treat it like art!
Donkey Kong Bananza is platforming greatness that rivals the likes of Astro Bot and Super Mario Odyssey. Check out my review over @CBR https://t.co/DjssQKnANc
