The two respected game creators will be taking part in Archipel Caravan, a “festival of Japanese pop culture” set to be held in Tokyo on December 15-17.

The pair’s session, simply titled ‘Shinji Mikami x Hideki Kamiya’, will see them discussing their past and future, as well as their philosophies on the creative process.

In this conversation, the two, who retired from their previous jobs in 2023, will begin by sharing their memories of their respective careers, as well as their creative thinking and future plans”, the Archipel Caravan’s event description reads.

Looks like a new studio

Mikami is 58 years old, has a Ferrari and in the recent years he wasn't working in game development but as an executive instead.

I think he'll retire and that Kamiya will create a new studio as creative leader. Mikami may put money on the studio and go there from time to time to share some beers but I don't see him getting involved on game development again if he didn't do it in his own studio.
