This would be a bigger fuck up than that of that website that criticized Uncharted 4 without noticing they were playing Uncharted 2.

Lol

This sounds like some hardcore denial to me. I mean it was reported today that he was free to seek out new employment in December right?

Here's the the source article from Tokyo Sports (in Japanese)

http://www.tokyo-sports.co.jp/entame/anime/462286/

- "小島は現在も社員として在籍しております"

Translation: “Currently, Kojima is listed as a company employee [at Konami].”

"現在は小島および開発チーム全体がメタルギアＶの開発を終え、長期休暇に入っています"

Translation: “Currently, Kojima and the development team are finished developing Metal Gear Solid V and are taking a long time off from work.”

What if Kojima wants to leave? How long could they keep him against his will?

I laughed way more than I should have at this.

Probably waiting til his contract is up.

i thought it was from a satire site like p4rgaming but it turns out it was from Kotaku........

Speculations about Kojima working on NX games.
