I'm just asking why Konami are having Sony come in to make their game and effectively making Silent Hill a PS exclusive. Funds? Lack of inspiration?  Sony paying for exclusivity?
What's the reason. Either way, it could get me back into Silent Hil again.
if this senario is true,..

no money probably exchanged hand.  exclusivity in exchange from using sony's development resources.  it means konami get's access to developers with better expertise on the ps5. it also means they can avoid taxes on the exchange of money.  and if sony's commitment is feature based it konami can minimize the risk of the development cycle going too long.

sony gets an exclusive.  that means both something they can boast about but also a third party developer not working on xbox or switch.
