Yakuza creator Toshihiro Nagoshi stepps down as Sega's CCO (Chief Creative Officer)

Announced in a press release, Toshihiro Nagoshi will step down as Sega's Chief Creative Officer and take on the role of creative director.
This will bring Nagoshi closer to active game development, as opposed to a supervisory role.
No specific reasoning has been given for Nagoshi's change in role.
Toshihiro Nagoshi is most famous for creating the Yakuza series for Sega.​

The headline spooked me. I thought he was leaving SEGA altogether.
