As we approach The Game Awards where The Last of Us 2 is all but guaranteed to win several awards, its Creative Director is continuing to advance his career.
Naughty Dog President Evan Wells announced three high-profile promotions within the company today. Most notable is Neil Druckmann, the well known Creative Director and face of The Last of Us franchise. Druckmann, who just three years ago was promoted to Vice President, has been promoted to Co-President alongside Wells.
Additionally, Alison Mori and Christian Gyrling have been promoted to Vice Presidents. Prior to becoming Vice President, Alison served as the Director of Operations and Christian served as the Co-Director of Programming.
Our Take
Naughty Dog has become a premier studio in the industry and a cornerstone of the PlayStation platform. It’s wonderful to see them continue to have success and we greatly anticipate their future projects on the PlayStation 5.
