Mark Healey, the co-founder of Media Molecule, is leaving the studio

There are some changes happening within Media Molecule. The British studio recently announced that it will no longer produce new content for Dreams, its latest game. However, the game will remain playable and the community will retain access to all creative tools.

Today, through a statement, Media Molecule officially confirms the departure of its co-founder Mark Healey. He will have spent over 17 years with the company, which was acquired by PlayStation in 2010. During this long period, Healey worked on LittleBigPlanet, Tearaway, and of course, Dreams.

In the same message, the studio specifies that a "new project is in development, which is exciting but it is still too early to talk about it".
