Saints Row IV creative director Steve Jaros has quit Volition to join Valve.

Revealing the news on Twitter, Jaros said his ten years at the studio had been “life-changing”, but felt it was time to move on. The developer had been working on Saints Row: Gat out of hell before his departure.

It’s not currently clear what his role will be at Valve.

The past 10 years at Volition have been life changing. I've gotten to work with amazing people and made friends that will last a life time..
