Staff continue to depart Infinity Ward
Published Wednesday, Apr 14 2010, 10:38 BST | By Matthew Reynolds
Programmer Jon Shiring and designer Mackey McCandlish, who spent a combined 14 years with the company, walked out earlier this week.
It has since been confirmed that lead artist Chris Cherubini has left the developer, while sources at Kotaku suggest that another three staff members - programmer Rayme Vinson and lead designers Steve Fukuda and Zied Reike - have also departed.
The exits follow the removal of studio heads Jason West and Vince Zampella by Activision last month. The pair have recently founded a new studio in collaboration with EA.
There has been no indication whether the former Infinity Ward staff will join West and Zampella's studio.
