I just hope the game they make succeeds in Japan. Astro Bot seems like a game Japan would like

I am 9000% sure that Sony did try to restructure and reorganize japan studios so they didn't have to scale it down.
But afaik some of the studio heads/legends weren't willing to say use Decima or upgrade their pipelines.

Great video Genki!! I really want their next game to be focused on PS5 and not solely VR. 🔥

I have seen people in Japan who bought PS5 and was most surprised by Astro's Playroom. Same reaction in South Korea who said it was the most fun game on PS5.

Junko Sano who was sound effect designer on Ape Escape 2 in the past is now working as sound director in Team Asobi. Yamada-san who was a programmer in Team Ape Escape and behind gameplay ideas is now lead gameplay programmer in Team Asobi. There are few more from this team who were transferred to Team Asobi effectively.

Key is to build studios and I don't think Sony will ever buy big publishers as many want to remain independent especially in Japan. Do you believe in the rumor from 2021, Genki? Sony has built a new studio behind the scenes in Japan. This studio was reported to be settled when they planned to close Japan Studio in early 2020.

If you look at Haven Sony acquired talent from Ubisoft to make a game with Ubisoft DNA. Is it possible this new studio in Japan is going to make a game with Konami DNA? Japan Studio had several key talents from the early days of KCEJ (now Kojima Productions) and the rumor reported Sony was hiring veterans from Konami and staff who used to work at Konami in Kojima's team had joined Capcom and Square Enix will join this studio.

I remember Mineshi Kimura's first attempt as director was Metal Gear Solid Rising that was later moved to Platinum Games as Metal Gear Rising Revengeance. This new team at Kojima Productions couldn't execute the game. Would he get a second chance as director? The producer was to blame for the mess as producer has more power than a director in Japan.

Team Asobi is exciting but the question mark for this new studio's existence would be even more exciting.

I think platform holders benefit more from building studios than buy properties that were made by a company. Shift Up Corporation is another good example. Also a question mark whether this new studio opened by several developers from Stellar Blade team exist under PlayStation as been reported. Kim Hyung-tae didn't wanted to sell Shift Up.

As a PlayStation fan there are lot to look forward to in the future that may come to fruition.
