Hideo Kojima (the mastermind behind the Metal Gear Solid Series) announced the form of a new studio. Kojima Productions is again a thing.



According to its official FAQ, it's currently working on a new title that will come first on PS4. And yes, the game will be released on the PC after its console release.

Q5. Why is Kojima Productions bringing their very first software to PS4 as a console exclusive? How did it come about?
Kojima is an extremely creative and passionate game designer who has made countless contributions to PlayStation and the gaming industry. By having Kojima develop his first independent title to PS4, we believe that we can deliver completely new gaming experiences made possibly only by Kojima, to gaming fans worldwide. We are not disclosing further details on how this agreement was realized. 

Q6. What other platforms will Kojima’s first independent title be available on, besides PS4?
The title is planned to become available on PC (after PS4).

Kojima's relationship with Konami began to show strain in March, when the publisher announced a corporate restructuring and removed Kojima Productions' branding fromMetal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain promotional materials. The following month, Konami canceled Kojima's collaboration with Guillermo del ToroSilent Hills, suggesting further turmoil. Later, in July, Kojima Productions was reportedly disbanded.
