Activision reaches settlement with former Infinity Ward heads

Activision has been involved in a bitter court battle with former ex-Infinity Ward employees Jason West and Vince Zampella for over two years. The proceedings even inadvertently resulted in the outing of Bungie’s “Destiny” MMO project for Activision.

But all that is over now as the publisher has announced they’ve reached a settlement with West and Zampella. According to Activision, the terms of the settlement are “strictly confidential.”

With the court case behind them, both parties can finally look to the future. West and Zampella formed Respawn Entertainment in 2010 and are developing a “sci-fi shooter” for Electronic Arts while Activision has taken the reins at Infinity Ward and begun hiring new developers for a “future generation” game.
