Despite being known as a studio with a rather intrusive austerity culture, many have stuck with Naughty Dog over the years. Now, however, for one of the most important and recognizable figures, it’s over.
Josh Scherr wrote Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End and helped write The Last of Us: Part II, and before that, he Having led animation work on several other “Uncharted” and “Jak & Daxter” films, he wrote on Twitter that he was leaving Naughty Dog after more than 21 years at the PlayStation studio. This is apparently because he has a prestigious job elsewhere, we’ll know more soon.
Of course, we hope and believe it has something to do with the game so we can continue to enjoy his genius, albeit at a different studio now.
