Sony has reportedly exited its involvement in Hideo Kojima’s anticipated project, Physint, leading to considerable speculation about the PlayStation company’s decision. This title is recognized as a spiritual successor to the renowned Metal Gear Solid series. In a significant development for Sony’s competitor, Xbox has now stepped in to support the project, marking a notable win for the platform. This shift has also put Sony under some negative public scrutiny regarding its strategic choices.

An industry analyst has offered a potential explanation for Sony’s parting ways with Kojima Productions on Physint. The analyst posits that the Death Stranding franchise may have only managed to “barely break even” financially. This modest return on investment from a previous collaboration could, according to the analyst, be a key factor in Sony’s decision to withdraw its support for the upcoming game. This report is based on information initially published by GameSpot.
