It was reported last week that Fumito Ueda, the man best known for his work on Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and the upcoming The Last Guardian, was leaving Sony. He has yet to address those rumors and Sony itself hasn’t provided any comment more specific than its standard response to everything it chalks up to “rumor and speculation.” In a tweet sent out earlier today, Ueda stated he is still at work on The Last Guardian but didn’t acknowledge anything regarding his possible departure from Sony and Team Ico.
Ueda had gone silent on Twitter in recent days, fueling speculation that his tenure with Sony was coming to an end. He’s begun talking once again today, including one message that reassured fans he is still working on The Last Guardian. Another message pointed out that the 10-year anniversary of Ico’s release in Japan is December 6. None made any mention of his employment status.
