Seth Killian Joins the Team at Santa Monica Studio

Seth Killian, community manager , special advisor and the namesake for Street Fighter IV’s boss character, has resigned from his position at Capcom in order to pursue new opportunities with Sony’s external group, Santa Monica Studio.

He says in his blog post:

I was excited to join Santa Monica Studio in particular because of the chance to work with some great individuals, but also because of the incredible range of projects they take on. If you head out of my office and turn right, you’ll run into the “God of War: Ascension” team. If you turn left, you’ll find the Giant Sparrow crew working on “The Unfinished Swan.” There are other amazing studios in the world, but nowhere else that I know where you can find that kind of diversity combined with such a deep commitment to greatness–which also happens to sum up what’s so exciting to me about Sony overall.

With the renowned tournament fighter joining a team already consisting of fighting game superstars, some of whom were also EVO finalists, the fate of PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale is looking favorable indeed.
