The extremely popular shooter game franchise Call of Duty stands tall as one of the most popular FPS series' in the gaming industry, with new entries constantly in development across several different studios. One of its most prolific developers is Raven Software — and after upwards of four decades, the dev's studio head and co-founder is stepping down.
That's none other than Brian Raffel, who founded Raven alongside his brother Steve in 1990 and led the studio as it shipped (or helped to ship) 42 games from then until now. Raffel has served at the helm of the developer for 36 years, and has now chosen to enter "a well-earned retirement." The studio announced the news on Thursday morning.
