Activision CEO Bobby Kotick is leaving the company after 30 years and $600 million in earnings. But it seems like it will be talked about more with his latest statement.
Activision’s CEO Bobby Kotick is leaving the company after a 30-year adventure. Kotick, who earned $600 million during this period, was criticized for not taking any precautions against sexual harassment allegations within the company. Now, it is leaving the gaming industry with the acquisition of Activision Blizzard by Microsoft.
Bobby Kotick Is Finally Leaving Activision
Although the last Call of Duty launch was chaotic, the game’s new modes attracted great attention. Under Kotick’s management, employees faced harsh working conditions and financial abuses. The CEO attributed this situation to “an aggressive labor movement that wants to destabilize the company.”
While Bobby Kotick leaves Activision Blizzard in a controversial position, the company’s talented and dedicated employees continue to contribute to the world of entertainment.
It may be more useful to focus on the successful games that Activision Blizzard currently supports and is on the market. Diablo IV was a game that found its feet on the ground after a difficult start. Overwatch 2, on the other hand, emerges as an impressive shooter game despite going through a chaotic process. In addition, games such as Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3, which has influenced millions of players, and World of Warcraft with its ever-expanding content, show Activision Blizzard’s successful game portfolio.
The new leadership is expected to lead the company out of this difficult period and provide players with games they will enjoy for many years to come.
