Rockstar San Diego (formerly Angel Studios) is one of the development studios under the Rockstar Games umbrella. In the beginning, they first made some games for the Famicom using the Super Sentai licence, but since they were based in San Diego, California, it was unusual that an American game developer would be developing games for Japan. They are also the developers behind the games Red Dead Revolver and it's 'spiritual sequel' Red Dead Redemption as well as the racing series' Midnight Club and Midtown Madness and the adventure series Smuggler's Run.

Angel Studios was founded in 1984, making mostly Japanese games. Rockstar Games acquired the company in 2002 and the first game the newly-named Rockstar San Diego made was Midnight Club II in 2003.
