(1/2) Today was my last day at Respawn Entertainment. It feels surreal. I’ve been making games for 18 years, always with only two companies: Infinity Ward and Respawn. I spent 11 of those years at Respawn, a company I co-founded.

(2/2) I’ve been fortunate to work with and learn from the most talented developers and help create franchises I’m very proud of (Titanfall and Apex Legends). It’s bittersweet today: I’m excited for my next adventure, but sad to leave family behind. It’s the end of an era.
