San Francisco – January 13, 2025 - Super Evil Megacorp, multi-award winning, independent developer and publisher of cross-platform games, has named Ian Fielding as CEO as long time chief executive of the company Kristian Segerstrale moves into the role of Executive Chair.

Over the last few years, Ian Fielding has helped grow Super Evil Megacorp from a 30 person, single product, mobile first studio into a 100+, multi product, cross platform studio as the Studio Head. He also acted as the Executive Producer for the critically acclaimed Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate. In the past, Ian has worked at several other studios, including Insomniac Games and over 8 years at Riot Games, where he helped lead major updates on League of Legends and helped launch and operate VALORANT as a live service.
