FromSoftware Chief Defends Creative Freedom as Kadokawa-Oasis Clash Intensifies

Amid Kadokawa's power struggle with Oasis Management, FromSoftware president Hidetaka Miyazaki publicly affirmed a development environment that lets the studio create without heavy interference, signaling no immediate changes despite Oasis's calls to oust Kadokawa leadership and push self-publishing.
