Reports on the Internet stated yesterday that Respawn co-founder Jason West had left the company. This was later confirmed by Vince Zampella, West’s longtime partner, with whom he developed such seminal games as Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, Call of Duty and Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.
“Jason has left Respawn to take care of some family issues,” posted Zampella. “We have worked together on some amazing accomplishments over the years, starting with an early Segasoft project that never shipped. It is sad to see things come to an end, but there are times when change is best for growth, both personally and professionally. I wish Jason the best and send my best wishes to his family. Respawn continues to amaze me, the team here is resilient and talented. E3 will be therapeutic for us, as we finally get to start showing our work again. I know the team was excited about the response we got from just admitting we were going to attend.”
