David Jaffe Leaving Eat, Sleep, Play
Twisted Metal creator and Eat, Sleep, Play bossman David Jaffe is set to leave the developing studio to pursue the creation of games in a more "casual" environment.
The rather stunning news comes courtesy of the
Salt Lake City Tribune which claims that the developer's co-founder Scott Campbell has stated that Jaffe will leave the studio amid recent staff cuts. It's been said that the studio's upcoming title reboot Twisted Metal will be the developer's last major title and will start designing mobile games.
“He’s excited to go into the casual space as well,” Campbell said of Jaffe. “He’s got some projects that he’s excited about. So we’re kind of going down two separate paths.”
However, Jaffe took to
Twitter saying that the "casual" reference was "exaggerated".
T”he rumors of me making casual games post TM – as many of you define them – are highly exaggerated,” he said.
Twisted Metal is out exclusively for the PlayStation 3 in the US on February 14.
