G4′s The Feed has apparently been in communication with a source at Infinity Ward, and reports that organizational changes may be in effect at the developer’s offices. The source claims that a “bunch of ‘bouncer-types’ just showed up outside of the Infinity Ward offices unannounced. When approached by employees, the non-uniformed ‘bouncers’ were unwilling to disclose why they were there.” It was then reported that Infinity Ward’s studio heads, Vince Zampella and Jason West, were not seen by fellow staff members after a meeting with Activision on Monday morning.
While these events have yet to be confirmed by either Infinity Ward or Activision, Activision filed forms with the SEC that included the following statement on Monday. “In November 2009, the Company released Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, a game developed by one of the Company’s wholly-owned studios, Infinity Ward. As noted above, Modern Warfare 2 was the best selling console title in the U.S. and Europe in 2009. Consistent with past practice, the Company intends to release a Call of Duty game in 2010 developed by another wholly-owned studio. The Company is concluding an internal human resources inquiry into breaches of contract and insubordination by two senior employees at Infinity Ward. This matter is expected to involve the departure of key personnel and litigation. At present, the Company does not expect this matter to have a material impact on the Company.”
