After directing The Evil Within, Mikami took on the role of executive producer while other devs led projects likeThe Evil Within 2, Ghostwire: Tokyo, and most recently, the musical action platformerHi-Fi Rush.In his email to staff, Vaughn called Hi-Fi Rush “one of the most successful launches for Bethesda and Xbox in recent years,” and continued to say it “generated significant positive momentum” for Tango.
I still occasionally squirm at the thought of Laura, the six-legged (or armed) boss in Evil Within, and there are countless other moments from Mikami’s games that give me the heebie-jeebies. Regardless, I’m still excited for Tango’s future games, especially if Hi-Fi Rush is any indication.
Also, I was today years old when I discovered Mikami voicedFallout 4’s Takahashi in the Japanese version of the game. On second thought, I’m not sure Bethesda can recover from his departure.
