The resignation you don’t expect: Hideki Kamiya and PlatinumGames go two separate ways, with almost immediate effect
The gaming press usually ends the week with a bombshell or, in cases like this, opens it: in a divorce we really never expected, Hideki Kamiya he starts packing up his things in a box and prepares to say his final goodbyes PlatinumGames. The detachment will be effective in just over two weeks, starting from Thursday 12 October. We dedicated the Ferragosto article to the game designer just a month and ten days ago, and after having covered his belligerent presence on Twitter in a specific paragraph, it is precisely on the newly renamed X that we see the farewell of the volcanic Japanese author.
However, I feel this outcome is for the best.
I will continue to create in my Hideki Kamiya way.
I hope you’ll keep your eyes peeled.

The farewell between Platinum Games and Hideki Kamiya: story of a divorce in two tweets
Vi we translate here are the words of the game designer. “As announced on the official profile of the development team,” says Kamiya, “I will leave PlatinumGames on October 12, 2023. I made the necessary considerations based on what I believe, and the choice I made was not easy in any way.” Continuing in the second tweet, the game designer promised fans a bright future. “I still think this is the best ending. I will continue to create in the Hideki Kamiya way as I always have.” Appealing to the attentive and watchful gaze of the fans, the game designer finally took his leave.
