Returnal director leaves Housemarque

Harry Krueger has been working at Housemarque for almost 15 years. At the studio acquired by PlayStation in June 2021, he directed Nex Machina, as well as the excellent Returnal.

In a press release, the Finnish company announced Krueger's departure.

"Departing from Housemarque was a very difficult decision for me, but I’m leaving the company with nothing but deep gratitude for the past, and a glowing optimism for the future - with an exciting new project in the works, a fantastic team that’s stronger than ever, and the continuous support of Sony and Playstation Studios, I know that Housemarque’s brightest chapter has yet to be written".
