Jet Set Radio Art Director Ryuta Ueda Rejoins Sega

Ryuta Ueda, the artist behind Jet Set Radio and original Yakuza games decided to return to the company.

The legendary artist who took a seven-year hiatus is now back with the company where he became famous. He left the company in 2014 after a 19-year run to work at Yahoo but decided to return to Sega back in May this year, VGC reports.

"I have decided to resign from Yahoo Japan and return to my old company, Sega," he wrote. "I am very grateful for the many people I met and the many lessons I learned through various projects at Yahoo."

"From now on, I will focus on making games again. Not only do I feel the excitement of making things, but I am also smiling a little at the thought of seeing old friends and meeting new people. I would like to fully demonstrate what I have cultivated through experience."

The artist developed Jet Set Radio and Jet Set Radio Future, plus the original two Yakuza games.
