EA's Tsunoda joins Microsoft

Former Electronic Arts executive Kudo Tsunoda has left the company to join Microsoft.

Tsunoda produced Def Jam Icon and Fight Night at EA and was working on a Marvel Comics-based fighting game at the company's Chicago development studio when it was closed last November.

According to a GameTap report, Tsunoda will be reunited at Microsoft with former EA Vancouver colleague Don Mattrick.

Tsunoda will now report to Mattrick as a General Manager and will be the project lead on an upcoming Gears Of War title.
