Ikumi Nakamura Leaves Tango Gameworks

"After 9 years as Creative director & Art Director at Tango and Zenimax - I felt here is one of ends of the journeys . I learned from the talented people I've worked with and I respect. 🙏😊 "

-Foxtrot1688d ago

Huh that's odd, I just assumed with the energetic E3 stage presentation she had rooted herself in for many years to come.

I wonder if something has happened behind closed doors.

Blu3_Berry1688d ago

That is indeed strange. I wish her the best luck though.

UltraNova1686d ago

Why? She rightfully received a lot of positive exposure during E3 so why is so hard to realise that that might have opened some doors for her?

Good luck to Nakamura on her new endeavors.

KillBill1686d ago

@UltraNova - it appears she is leaving with no actual follow on work. So though doors might be open for her the choice of her leaving is odd at best.

DarkOcelet1688d ago

That is really sad to hear. Really loved her work in The Evil Within and Safe Head is one of my favorite horror monsters of all time. So what will happen to Ghostwire Tokyo now? Will she remain the creative director? She looked so excited and happy when she announced that game :(

I have a feeling Bethesda/Zenimax had something to do with this and maybe they decided to make Tango add microtransaction and force co-op or some shit and she didnt want that in the game. I hope am wrong but when a creative director leaves a studio mid-project, its usually bad news!

robtion1687d ago

Yeah it definitely doesn't seem like good news. Let's just hope you are wrong.

deadfrag1687d ago

She has end the work on GhostWire the project is on final stage.

KillBill1686d ago

Where have you gotten the information of the project being in final stages?

TheOpenWorlder1686d ago

Why, from his fat ass of course!

BlackIceJoe1688d ago

Hopefully she'll get to take her experience with her and start up a new game studio.

More Japanese game studios are always welcome, so I hope to see more from her in the future.

LoneGaymer1687d ago

Damn. She is very talented and she will be a treasure with any studio she joins.

How long until they get sued and it gets taken down? I say a month or 2

PRIMORDUS9h ago

Sued for what? It's just an emulator no ROMs are with it. ROMs are easy to get anyway, but with iPhone you can't just copy and paste like Android unless it's jail broken I think. Anyway Nintendo should be more concerned with their ROMs up to torrent for years for all of their concoles, but then again they can't do nothing about it, they never will and I love it. 🤣

NotoriousWhiz7h ago

As long as it isn't emulating the Switch, it'll be fine.

RonnySins7h ago

Naaah! Don't want to waste time emulating on iPhone.

Won't belong before Nintendo bangs on Apple's door to have the emu removed. Like I say you take down one six more take it's place. Problem is people are putting emu's on such stupid platforms. The good emus are the ones not on stupid platforms like a red target. The good emu's are word of mouth and keep a low profile.

Pocketpair Studio Boss Calls Out Tencent For Developing A Palworld Clone

The game in question appears to be dubbed Auroria on Steam, which shares a plethora of similarities with Palworld.

Inverno14h ago

No offense but Palworld isn't that original either, with that said… ew Tencent no thank you. I love the survival genre but all these half baked early access games have ruined the genre for me.
