Rumors about the new acquisition of PS Studios have taken over the networks in recent days. On Thursday (14), there were rumors that the Kojima Productions would be acquired by Sonybut the speculation was soon dismissed by Kojima himself — that will remain independent. However, if journalist and insider Jeff Grubb is correct, the new purchase is more significant than that of the Japanese studio.
According to Grubb, the rumors were never about Kojima Productions. In a recent episode of his podcast, the journalist explained that “that was not the name that was going around”.

If you’ve heard the rumors about a major Sony acquisition, it’s never been about Kojima Productions. I am aware of this. People were hearing these things, including me. That wasn’t the name that was going around. It was bigger than Kojima Productions.
Second, Grubb the new PS Studios acquisition may be revealed soon, as he and journalist Greg Miller stated a few days ago. Considering the last major transactions, such as the Microsoft’s purchase of Activision Blizzard e Bungie by Sonyit is really difficult to even speculate what the name of the time is.
Even with the good credibility of the source, the addendum is worth it: none of this has been made official so far, so treat the text with some caution.
