Playstation and Kojima Purchase the Rights to Konami

Break ups can be tough and it can get even harder when your ex comes after you for everything you own.  This is exactly what is happening between Konami and game developer Hideo Kojima.  After a long, drawn out break up which started in 2015, Hideo Kojima, now partnered with PlayStation, has bought all the rights to Konami.

After long talks with PlayStation in early 2016, it was decided by both parties to buy out  Konami.  Doing so would not only give Kojima the rights for the Metal Gear Solid series, but allow him to resurrect the dead Silent Hills project.

As of yet there is no word on how much Kojima offered Konami.

If we’ve learned anything from this sordid relationship, we have certainly learned that payback can be a bitch.  Sign those prenupts, and have a happy April Fool’s day!
