Prominent game studios are being scooped up by bigger companies left and right these days, but it doesn't sound like Kojima Productions will be one of them any time soon.
While chatting on his Brain Structure podcast, Hideo Kojima himself got on the topic of studio acquisitions and revealed that he's already received lucrative offers for his studio Kojima Productions. However, the acclaimed video game director also made it pretty dang clear that he doesn't intend on selling his studio - not while his heart's still beating, that is.
"Every day, I am approached by offers from all over the world to buy our studio. Some of those offers are ridiculously high prices, but it's not that I want money," Kojima said. "I want to make what I want to make. That's why I created this studio. So as long as I'm alive, I don't think I will ever accept those offers."
"The rumor that Death Stranding, moreover a sequel, was in the works to be an exclusive title for Google is unfounded, and Phil Harrison ultimately rejecting that is quite impossible. I've never once said anything to Phil about wanting to create a Death Stranding sequel. I don't know who pulled this information, [or] from where."
