Marvel's Wolverine Creative Director Departs For Xbox's Perfect Dark

Two of the biggest console exclusives in the works are Marvel's Wolverine for PS5 and Perfect Dark for Xbox Series X|S. Fascinatingly enough, the creative director for the former has swapped to take over the same position at the latter game from Microsoft's The Initiative and Crystal Dynamics.

Game File reported that Brian Horton hasn't been overseeing Wolverine since sometime this summer. In fact, Horton left Insomniac Games altogether to become creative director on Perfect Dark. An Xbox spokesperson told Game File that he is “bringing his wealth of experience to the upcoming reboot of the classic secret agent series."

The former Insomniac developer previously served on Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, too, but apparently creative differences led to Horton no longer working on Wolverine. That wasn't the only change either, as Cameron Christian is no longer directing the PS5 game (though it's noted that Christian is staying at Insomniac).
