This seems like a totally needless blunder from Sony and an easy win for Microsoft.
If the game succeeds, Xbox now has the opportunity to have funded a spiritual sequel to Metal Gear Solid. But even if it doesn’t go anywhere, they have broken Kojima away from Playstation, at the very least.
The amount of intellectual property that Sony has let depart or atrophy over the decades is wild.
This Bluesky user said it brilliantly.
Why does this dude get backstabbed on the regular 😂
Good thing then that every machine that plays games is basically the same nowadays. 20 years ago this would have cost the team at least a year.
Can I count on a PC release now?
Xbox was actively angering large swathes of the gaming community. All Sony had to do was sit back and let them implode. Instead they’re trying to outdo Microsoft.

What does it say? xcancel is blocking me.
Damn, progression these day aren’t from upping their collaborate, it’s to wait for your competitor kicking their own balls. So weird that Sony will evict a golden goose.
