You may remember about a month ago, Infinity Ward founders Jason West and Vince Zampella left Infinity Ward and sued Activision over unpaid royalties.
Just recently, two more Infinity Ward members have left the studio this month. Todd Alderman, Lead Designer who mainly worked on Multiplayer, along with Lead Software Engineer Francesco Gigliotti. Alderman worked at Infinity Ward for over eight years, while Gigliotti worked for seven.
It is currently unknown whether or not their departure of the studio had anything to do with Infinity Ward’s unpaid royalties, although word is spreading that the two resigned on their own.
