They remain independent, he says
Earlier this week, thePlayStation Studios websitewas updated so that the banner image included an picture of Sam Bridges fromDeath Stranding. Yesterday, Death Stranding designer and Kojima Productions founder Hideo Kojima tweeted a picture said banner.
People then got excited, thinking this wordless tweet meant that Sony had acquired Kojima Productions. It caused enough of a fuss that Kojima did a follow-up tweet saying, hey, sorry, that hasn’t happened.
I’m sorry for the misunderstanding, but KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS has been and will continue to be an independent studio.https://t.co/2M0n4ogRaa— HIDEO_KOJIMA (@HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN)April 15, 2022

“I’m sorry for the misunderstanding, but Kojima Productions has been and will continue to be an independent studio,” said Kojima in the tweet.

Obviously I’m keen that Kojima Productions remain independent. Death Stranding came to PC not too long after its initial console release. Given the much greater lag between Sony’s own studios launching a new game and them bringing that game to PC, any acquisition would seem to be bad news for us.
