Due to the purchase of Blizzard Activision by Microsoft, the acquisition of studies is in the minds of many people, including Atsushi Inaba, president of Platinumgames . In a recent interview, the manager noted that he is willing to negotiate the sale of the Japanese company, but only under a condition.

In a talk with VGC, Inaba was questioned about the recent acquisition of Activision Blizzard, and pointed out that she would be willing to negotiate the sale of PlatinumGames, but only if the indicated company intends to preserve her creative freedom and independence Hideki Kamiya and the rest of the developers. This was what he commented:

"The most important thing for us is to have the freedom to make the games that we want to do. From what I heard about the recent acquisitions, I do not think Microsoft is going to start micropostion activision to the point of taking all their freedom... I do not think it's going to be such a relationship.

I think there will be a lot of mutual respect there and I think it will be able to continue doing what it best knows. That is also the most important thing for us at the end of the day, whatever the way you take for us and our company. So I would not reject anything, as long as our freedom is respected. "

Considering that PlatinumGames is a study that is constantly creating new properties, or working on some classical franchises, Inaba's request makes sense . Although this is just an assumption, it is interesting to think about what the company was indicated to acquire those responsible for _nier: Automate, _ Bayonetta and more series.

In related topics, Kamiya wants to revive scalebound. Similarly, PlatinumGames could make longer games.

Editor's note:

Although the purchase of platinumgames by Square Enix, Microsoft or Nintendo sounds interesting, the truth is that this is one of the studies that I do not see as part of another company. The projects that are born here are unique. Perhaps sun crest would have been impossible under another circumstance.
