Mikami-san is hard at work as director of Vanquish, but leaves to form new studio Tango once it's done with Nishikawa-san joining him.
Tango will be based in Tokyo where Shigenori Nishikawa will now start to collect his pay cheque, with Resi Evil's Mikami-san to join him once production has wrapped up on Sega's Vanguish shooter, reports GoNintendo.
Platinum Games recently released Bayonetta for Xbox 360 and PS3. The studio is likely feeling the loss of the Madworld director. The future just got brighter for Shinji Mikami and his new Tango studio though - what could they be up to?
