No shut down, no change in IPs

Konami’s accidental misdirection caused concern for its own IPs, seeing as its gaming division hasn’t announced any upcoming Triple A sequels or titles, with it’s latest title being Frogger in Toy Town for iOS (not hate for Frogger intended). Fans have spoken up about their thoughts, and despite Konami’s gaming division not shutting down, they still believe certain IPs should be taken off Konami’s hands.  Konami has seen success with its development of mobile games including its Pro Evolution Soccer, along with the controversial Metal Gear Solid pachinko machines back in 2016. However, In 2019, Konami’s European president Masami Saso stated, “Even with new platforms coming out, we believe high-end console games are the most important.” We still haven’t heard of any upcoming IPs since, despite the many rumours of Silent Hills being remade. Still, this fluster of news may give Konami the kick it needs to bring back some favourites for next-gen consoles.
