Sony&#8217;s acquisition of Insomniac Games in 2019 followed by <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/microsoft-bethesda-elder-scrolls-skyrim-fallout\/\">Microsoft purchasing Bethesda in 2020<\/a>\u00a0were examples of some major power moves intending to build on the foundation of their respective companies.<\/p>\n<p>Following the announcement of the <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/perfect-dark-the-initiative-game-awards-2020\/\">surprise reboot of <em>Perfect Dark<\/em><\/a>, led by in-house developer The Initiative, all eyes are currently on Microsoft as many gamers await the next chapter in the Microsoft saga. Some gamers, however, may be looking a bit too much into specific details, mistaking them for official teasers and announcements.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/xbox-nintendo-legend-of-zelda-phil-spenser-praise\/\">Head of Xbox Phil Spencer Praises The Legend of Zelda Franchise<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Earlier today, the second day of Microsoft&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/microsoft-gaming-tech-summit-february-2021\/\">AI and Gaming Research Summit<\/a> kicked off, a two-day conference event discussing the future of AI and machine learning in video games. During the conference, the executive vice-president Phil Spencer was seen with a figurine of Ludens on his shelf. Ludens is the mascot of Kojima Productions, Hideo Kojima&#8217;s own studio following his break-up with Konami.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/You1507cef\/status\/1364267929219592200\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>While innocuous by itself, as it is nothing more than a figure on a shelf,\u00a0the Ludens figure didn&#8217;t stop gamers from going on Twitter to identify the rest of Spencer&#8217;s shelf with some making a tongue-in-cheek reference towards the absurdity. In the Twitter thread,\u00a0another user noticed a copy of Deck Nine&#8217;s\u00a0<em>Life Is Strange: Before The Storm<\/em> on Spencer&#8217;s shelf, further adding to the joke that Microsoft is in &#8220;talks&#8221; with acquiring the many developers whose products are featured on his shelf.<\/p>\n<p>Kojima Productions was created by Hideo Kojima in 2015 following his split from long-time developer Konami.\u00a0In 2019, Kojima Productions released\u00a0<em>Death Stranding<\/em>,\u00a0built upon the groundwork of the canceled title\u00a0<em>Silent Hills<\/em> using the likeliness and voice of actor Norman Reedus. Since its release, the <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/death-stranding-extended-edition-ps4-ps5\/\">latest rumor involving\u00a0<em>Death Stranding<\/em><\/a> is talks of an extended version releasing on the PS4 and PS5. This &#8220;extended&#8221; release would expand on the story, tying up loose ends and offer a streamlined experience. Neither Kojima Productions nor Sony had confirmed this information.<\/p>\n<p>With the rumor that <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/microsoft-bethesda-level-acquisition-2021-rumor\/\">Microsoft is looking towards making a blockbuster purchase<\/a> on the level of their Bethesda acquisition,\u00a0Microsoft potentially buying a company such as Kojima Productions isn&#8217;t something that is entirely off the table. The absurdity of such a claim existing solely from a figurine on a desk, however, gave the internet something to jest about.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Death Stranding<\/em><\/strong> is currently\u00a0available on the PC and PS4.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"next-single\">MORE:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/gears-of-war-2-remastered\/\">Gears of War 2 Remastered Rumors Shut Down<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"syndicated-attribution\"><figure class= \\\"wp-block-image alignnone \\\"><img src= \\\"http:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo2-2.png\\\" alt=\\\"IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 java\u88dc\u7fd2 \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2,IT freelance, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b, PHP\u88dc\u7fd2,CSS\u88dc\u7fd2,XML,Java\u88dc\u7fd2,MySQL\u88dc\u7fd2,graphic design\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e2d\u5c0f\u5b78ICT\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e00\u5c0d\u4e00\u79c1\u4eba\u88dc\u7fd2\u548cFreelance\u81ea\u7531\u5de5\u4f5c\u914d\u5c0d\u3002\\\"\/><figcaption>\u7acb\u523b\u8a3b\u518a\u53ca\u5831\u540d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2\u8ab2\u7a0b\u5427!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<\/br>Find A Teacher Form:\r\n<\/br>https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/1vREBnX5n262umf4wU5U2pyTwvk9O-JrAgblA-wH9GFQ\/viewform?edit_requested=true#responses\r\n<\/br><\/br>Email:\r\n<\/br>public1989two@gmail.com<br><br><br><br><br><br><br>\r\n<a href=www.itsec.hk style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.hk<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itsec.vip\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.vip<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itseceu.uk\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itseceu.uk<\/a><br><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>During Microsoft&#8217;s Gaming Summit, gamers take to Twitter to speculate after noticing the mascot of Kojima Productions on Phil Spencer&#8217;s desk<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1206,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"slim_seo":{"title":"Gamers Think Xbox is Teasing a Kojima Productions Partnership - ITTeacherITFreelance.hk","description":"During Microsoft's Gaming Summit, gamers take to Twitter to speculate after noticing the mascot of Kojima Productions on Phil Spencer's desk"},"footnotes":""},"categories":[607],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/200923"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1206"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=200923"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/200923\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":200924,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/200923\/revisions\/200924"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=200923"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=200923"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=200923"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
