I look forwards to seeing what incredible things these wonderful people will continue to bring to the industry and to players everywhere. I know that they will be amazing wherever they go next! 💙⛰️🏹

Today was my last day at Firesprite and PlayStation, as after nearly 7 years here I am being made redundant. It has been a tough time over the past few months, but thank you to all the folks that have continued to help each other through all of this, you have been incredible 💙

[Alex Barnes @cappatches]

The people at Firesprite and Guerrilla that pulled together to build Horizon Call of the Mountain were some of the most talented and dedicated developers I've had the pleasure to work with. It has been the honour of a lifetime to have been a Game Director with a team like this.

It was nice to talk about some of the behind the scenes stuff for call of the mountain, thanks for having me @benz145 and @RtoVR!

It's once again my great pleasure to get to speak to the developers and share some of the incredible design behind one of the biggest VR game releases to date. Thanks to @cappatches for the look behind the scenes!

@HazzaBui @Legend_Ori I mean I’ve genuinely had conversations with people telling me I just play games because I hadn’t worked on something they’d heard of 😅
