Mike Griffith, CEO and president of Activision Publishing, has reportedly resigned from his position with the company, effective from April 23.
Despite this, GI.biz reports that Griffith will remain with the firm in his new capacity as vice chairman of Activision Blizzard. Here, his role includes "participating in board of directors and chairman of the board meetings and other internal strategy sessions; providing counsel to Activision Blizzard’s executive team; and providing services on key initiatives and projects, as requested by the CEO".
It remains unknown as to whether or not Griffith’s resignation was in any way related to the current legal battle between the firm and members of Modern Warfare developer Infinity Ward.
