Former Volition staffers Sandeep Shekar, Jiovanie Velazquez and Christopher Stockman have left the Saints Row (X360) developer to found the just-announced Blazing Lizard studio, which will focus on downloadable console offerings.

Shekar, who acted as Volition's studio artist manager, serves as company president. Stockman and Velazquez, both of whom led the Saints Row design team, respectively occupy the roles of studio director and creative director. All three lead the core development team.

Based in Savoy, Illinois, Blazing Lizard is currently working on an original IP it claims will "take the fledgling console downloadable genre by storm." The developer plans to formally unveil its first title August 13.
