It is good timing, too, because it looks like Mikami has teased his intention to return to the world of recreation improvement. Earlier this 12 months, it was reported that Mikami had left Tango Gameworks, the very studio he based, which seemingly resulted in a non-compete clause. “Now that I’ve damaged the spell of non-competition on myself, I assume I ought to get to work,” Mikami tweeted yesterday, implying that the clause has now completed. PlatinumGames co-founder Hideki Kamiya appears to be going by way of one thing comparable, as he himself lately left the Bayonetta developer. Kamiya has began his personal YouTube channel, the place he defined that he signed a non-compete settlement which lasts a 12 months, so we cannot see a brand new recreation from him for some time.
