More Talent Leaves Naughty Dog

More Talent Leaves Naughty Dog

Another talent at Naughty Dog has left the company.  Lead character artist Michael Knowland has apparently departed from the house that Bandicoot built.

This is the most recent in a string of leaves for the developer. First, creative director of the Uncharted series Amy Henning left earlier in March and later joined Visceral Games in early April to oversee a new Star Wars game. Not too long after, Uncharted 4 director Justin Richmond departed and joined Riot Games who make League of Legends. And last week, art director Nate Wells left to join Giant Sparrow who made Unfinished Swan.

Knowland worked at Naughty Dog since 2011, where he worked on The Last of Us. Naughty Dog has yet to respond to the situation.
