The Last Of Us Scores A BioShock Infinite Developer

I swear it’s like game developer musical chairs month or something. Last week two top-level developers left BioShock Infinite out of the blue. One quickly found a home at Epic Games and is working on the next Gears of War. Now another one has found a new studio and project to call home. Former Art Director on BioShock Infinite, Nate Wells, has joined Naughty Dog and will be working on The Last of Us.

Not only that but Wells has been appointed as the Art Director for the title as well. After tweeting about it yesterday, Wells stated that he “can’t wait” to work on The Last of Us. A Sony spokesperson also confirmed the hiring and position appointment of Wells.

Wells left Irrational Games and BioShock Infinite last week after working for the studio for over 13 years.

Wells is certainly an expert when it comes to Art Direction, so this could only be fantastic news for people already looking forward to The Last of Us.
