Andrew House, president of Sony Interactive Entertainment, is stepping down from his role. House, known for overseeing the very successful launch of the PlayStation 4, joined Sony in 1995 and helped launch the original PlayStation. He’ll be moving to becoming the director and chairman of SIE.
House’s role as SIE president will be filled by John Kodera, the current deputy president, but House is staying on through the end of the year to ensure ‘a smooth transition’.Â
‘PlayStation has been a huge part of my life for more than 20 years but with the business having achieved record-breaking success, now seemed to be the right time for me to pursue new challenges,’ House said in a statement.Â
I’m not one to peddle conspiracy theories, but this news does come suspiciously soon after the launch of Knack 2, lending weight to the idea that all House wanted was to make another Knack game.
