Shuhei Yoshida Is Leaving PlayStation
Today Sony Interactive Entertainment Head of Independent Developer Initiative Shuhei Yoshida announced that he’s leaving the company after 31 years.
Yoshida has been working at PlayStation since the creation of the team in 1993 and has covered a variety of high-profile roles including President of the Worldwide Studios. His departure will be effective on January 15, 2025.
Below you can read his comment about his departure:
I’ve been with PlayStation from the beginning, and this is my 31st year with PlayStation. And when I hit 30 years, I was thinking, hmm, it may be about time for me to move on. You know, the company’s been doing great. I love PS5, I love the games that are coming out on this platform. And we have new generations of management who I respect and admire. And I’m so excited for the future of PlayStation.
So you know, PlayStation is in really good hands. I thought, okay, this is my time.
Yoshida-san is well-known among the fans for his charisma and his ability as a gamer, with his livestreams beating bosses of upcoming Soulsborne games still near and dear to the hearts of many. Not many executives of gaming companies are also very skilled gamers, after all.
Above you can see his legendary skit with Adam Boyes (who also left the company a while ago), which went down in history as one of the funniest E3 burns of all time. That was 2013… where does the time go?
