Infinity Ward execs leave Activision
NEW YORK — Activision says Jason West and Vince Zampella, executives at “Call of Duty” developer Infinity Ward, are no longer with the company.
Zampella had served as CEO at Infinity Ward and West as chief technology officer, among other titles.
Activision Blizzard Inc. said Tuesday it plans to form a new business unit focused on the “Call of Duty” franchise. It says the unit will focus on online content and expanding the brand.
The shake-up comes a day after Activision said it was looking into breaches of contract and insubordination by two senior employees at Infinity Ward.
Activision did not name West and Zampella in Monday’s regulatory filing. But the filing said the company expects the “departure of key personnel” as a result.
