Yet More Infinity Ward Departures


Two more Infinity Ward employees have left the company.

Kotaku reports that, according to sources close to Infinity Ward, Mark Grigsby and Paul Messerly - the team's lead animator and lead character animator, respectively - have now left the company.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2Both employees have also reportedly updated their LinkedIn profiles to reflect their leaving Infinity Ward in April 2010.

These are far from the first staff losses Infinity Ward has suffered, with the exodus encompassing studio heads, lead designers and software engineers, programmers and designers, and lead artists.

We'd guess that most of these employees are going to follow ex-Infinity Ward studio heads Jason West and Vince Zampella to their new company, Respawn Entertainment, but we'll have to wait and see.
