Sony acquires Kojima Studios?
PS official website background added "Death Stranding"
Recently, "Death Stranding" was added to the background banner of Sony PlayStation Studios' official website. As you can see, the other games in the banner are all from real Sony first-party studios, which makes Death Stranding a bit out of place.
Death Stranding is a game released in 2019, and even the director's cut version has been on sale for several months, and it is inevitable that the background banner added to the playStation Studios official website at this time is inevitably a bit strange.
More coincidentally, Kojima himself moved the studio earlier this month, and while this may be an unrelated matter, it inevitably sparked speculation among players.
