This new listing comes in the wake of Hideo Kojima leaving Konami, even if he insisted he is only on a vacation. Kojima is the creative mind behind the "Metal Gear Solid" series. While still silent on whether he is still part of Konami or not, IGN already reported that he has founded a new independent game studio already: Kojima Productions. Not only that, the studio has already taken on its first project, partnered with Sony no less. This is a new franchise that IGN called "slightly more edgy."
