Naughty Dog, the Sony-owned studio behind Uncharted and The Last Of Us, has responded to the claims of sexual harassment from a former employee. In a series of tweets this weekend, David Ballard, who was an environment artist at the studio, alleged that he was "sexually harassed at Naughty Dog by a lead," whom he did not name.

"My work environment became extremely toxic afterward," Ballard said, adding that the alleged harassment took place in late 2015. In February 2016, Ballard said he had a "mental breakdown" while at work and at this time PlayStation's HR department got involved. He said he informed HR about the alleged harassment and they "fired me the next day."
