Former Lionhead boss to join Sony London Studio

PlayStation is continuing to grow with the addition of a video game veteran to its London Studio. Stuart Whyte has joined in the newly-created role of director of VR product development. He starts the new position on Monday.
Whyte was previously studio director at Lionhead, which was a position he held until the studio was shut down. He held various positions at the Fable maker, including operations director, head of production and executive producer. He also spent three years working with the studio and Xbox as chief publishing officer.
“I’m super excited to be joining the London team to lead them further on their journey to becoming the world’s leading AAA, VR Team,”
In his 25 year career Stuart held senior positions at Microprose, Bullfrog, Wildebeetle, and Supermassive Games. He’s also a board member of TIGA. It will be interesting to see what he will do with Sony and PlayStation VR as that is what they are best known for recently.
It was also recently announced that Sony sold 375,000 PlayStation VR units in quarter one of 2017 which was more than what they expected.
