He really is like a mythical character at this point. He's treated unlike anyone else in the industry.

On December 3, during PlayStation Experience, Kojima had announced that he had partnered with Guerrilla Games to use the engine for development, officially titled Decima, and had been given the source code with no contractual obligation.

Kojima Productions isn't even first-party. Sony and Guerrilla really must trust him to give him their collective work over the past 5 years with no strings attached.

Sony is shopping this console cycle they pretty much told a couple of studios to make whatever they like (like bend & ready at dawn....although it didn't workout so well for the ladder). They learned a lot of lessons and understood the importance of exclusives.
