Hideki Kamiya has formally left PlatinumGames and has now launched his very personal YouTube channel, appropriately titled ‘Hideki Kamiya Channel’.
Presented with Kamiya’s signature sense of humour, the debut video delves into his departure from his function as Vice President at PlatinumGames and what his plans are going forwards.
We’d advise you to not get your hopes up simply but, although, because it appears Kamiya will not be at the moment in any rush to get again to work. Indeed, he states that he determined to depart PlatinumGames three months in the past on the time of the video add and has spent nearly all of his time watching Netflix, YouTube, and Disney+. He goes on to say “I can not work for [the same industry for] a yr. For causes. So it will be some time till I carry excellent news to you all”.
Judging from a sizeable chunk of the video, it seems like Kamiya might be spending fairly a little bit of his time going ahead with some house cooking. Fair sufficient, proper?
Interestingly, Kamiya stays coy on his causes for leaving PlatinumGames, and has acknowledged the next:
“Why did I give up? You can bleep out, proper? How ought to I put it… Hmm… How can I put it… Umm… There’s no method I can put it! You guys perceive, proper? But… I’d say, I left the corporate as a result of I needed to comply with my beliefs as a sport creator and to decide on the trail I feel is true and transfer on. Yeah, so I’m not going to retire but. I wish to preserve creating video games.”
While we will solely speculate at this stage, it seems like Kamiya had maybe clashed together with his colleagues relating to inventive variations and felt it greatest to strike out on his personal. Regardless of the place he finally ends up, nevertheless, we won’t wait to see what he cooks up sooner or later. Both within the kitchen and within the sport studio.
