Wells, who worked on The Last of Us, announced his career change on Twitter . "Hmmm ... seem to be some threads here," Wells wrote. "Yes, I joined the wild, wacky, and ultimately brilliant folks at #GiantSparrow on April 3rd."Giant Sparrow is a small video game company, based in Santa Monica, Calif., best known for making The Unfinished Swan. According to the studio's website , the small team is working on a new project, reportedly called Edith Finch . "It's not a sequel to The Unfinished Swan, but it's not a million miles away either. If you like surreal experiences and games that aren't much like anything you've ever played before, then you'll probably like it."The small studio signed a three-project deal with Sony in 2009, with The Unfinished Swan being the first game in the contract.The departure of Wells comes after the noteworthy exits of Amy Hennig and Justin Richmond from Naughty Dog, who both were heading up Uncharted 4. Hennig has since joined Visceral's Star Wars project at EA, while Richmond left the studio for Riot Games.IGN has reached out to Sony for comment on Wells' departure and whether he was involved with Uncharted 4.
