Maybe they mean they were cool with it being outsourced after their own teams couldn't do shit? I'm not sure what they are trying to say tbh.

It means because Survive was a flop they’ve decided they will outsource their ips, since they don’t have the commitment to do them properly. Survive was a half baked idea with reused assets.
Previously they wouldn’t, now they know they’re shit so they’ve
Cooled off and will let others do it.

Hopefully, these and Silent Hill all end up PS5 exclusives.

Just don't allow any schmuck to make castlevania.
We don't need another Lords of Shadow 2 again.

They'd make solid exclusives and take full advantage of PS5 exclusive features.

Good. Let other companies handle the development while they publish the results and provide cursory oversight. I'd love it if indies could finally take a try at the Castlevania license in particular since it seems like every third indie game nowadays is a Castlevania sidescroller.

I can't take the constant influx of Metal Gear Solid rumors. I'd bet there has literally been a prominent one at least every 2-3 months since the series died. I want the series to continue in some form, especially if it's a remake, but my heart can't take this anymore.

Perfect for Sony, I bet a lot of people will agree.

Akira Yamaoka was hinting at his next project being a return to Silent Hill, and given that he has a track record as a producer on the franchise it wouldn't surprise me if he was in a similar position on the reboot.
Thinking about it, it could be the reason for Toyama splitting to start his own outfit. Maybe his pitch to Sony/Konami was rejected in favor of one headed up by Yamaoka? After all, its long been speculated that Bluepoint are working on a MGS reboot for Sony, so I can see them running a SH reboot alongside it.

If anything, I wish they would outsource the FOX engine. Egregiously underutilized.

It's fine, the people who tend to complain about that sort of thing are now well accustomed to the cinematic 3rd person walkie talkie simulator genre thanks to The Medium.
We can all get along now.

Silent Hill continues to be the worst kept secret in the industry.
Metal Gear is probably Bluepoint, as both the aforementioned and this have too much smoke.
Castlevania is one I'd be interested to see who they would outsource that one to; been a long time since we've had a strong entry in that franchise.

Outsourcing to credible devs instead of no names would be a start.

"Plans to"? everything prior to this I've seen and read implied that MGS is something already in development.

Put it this way, the first time they did it was to be cheap, now they are doing it because lots of those developers no longer work at Konami....resulting in.....well Metal Gear Survive

I don't think you can just outsource MGS to anyone and also I sure hope it's not a sequel or a remake. The MGS story is done. A new game should be at most a thinly connected reboot. But really the series needs a fresh take and a new story that carries the vibe and feel of it. Also, it's gotta be Japanese. I think a western MGS would feel off. That said, I can't think of a single developer that could do MGS justice.

Lords of Shadow was good but not great. Mirror of Fate was decent but maybe not as good as Lords of Shadow.
Never played the sequel.
The thing is - I'd rather get outsourced Castlevania than none at all.

Weren't they already? At least with Castlevania for the past damn decade? Those games were trash as was the Metroid 2 3DS remake by the same devs.
I'd rather have nothing than the outsourced garbage that misses the standards set by the original teams.

As long as Kojima doesn't come close to them, I have high hopes.
