Sucker Punch co-founder Brian Fleming has shared comment on the firing of former employee Drew Harrison, following her social media posts surrounding the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
Speaking to Game File in a new interview, Fleming said the following:
Drew’s no longer an employee here. I think we’re aligned as a studio that celebrating or making light of someone’s murder is a deal-breaker for us, and we condemn that, kind of in no uncertain terms. That’s sort of our studio, and that’s kind of where we are.
Stephen Totilo, the journalist behind the interview, followed up on the response by questioning how you can “weigh [up] a person’s 10-year run at a studio against a social media post”. However, a Sony representative present in the interview said there won’t be any further comments made on the matter.
