Rocksteady co-founders and studio heads depart studio ahead of Suicide Squad release

Sefton Jill and Jaime Walker, co-founders and studio heads of game studio Rocksteady, have left the studio ahead of its release of the upcoming Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League.

The departures were revealed in a letter shared this morning on the Rocksteady website by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment president David Haddad. Haddad explained that the two “decided to leave Rocksteady at the end of 2022 and will begin a new adventure in gaming,” but did not reveal where they will be going or what they will be working on. Replacing them are Nathan Burlow, another founding member of Rocksteady who will become the studio director, and Darius Sadeghian, who will become the new studio product director.
