  Thank you. I wonder what “partner” means in this context. Probably money, no?

    Publisher. Someone to fund the project in exchange for a share in the profits.

    Though with Sony, they also had access to the Decima Engine that was used for Death Stranding, so I’d guess that they’re probably cut off from that as well. But it looks like their other game OD is using Unreal Engine, so it looks like they’ve already started transitioning away from that.

      It he looked tirelessly, but there aren’t many publishers out there that can fund a kojima project right?

        Probably a few could in Japan, but I don’t know of any other western publishers of that scale besides Microsoft.
