Call of Duty Zombies Co-Creator Jason Blundell Leaves Treyarch

After 13 years working on the Call of Duty Zombies mode, co-creator Jason Blundell has announced his departure from Treyarch.The Treyarch Twitter account posted a short statement from Blundell about his departure and thoughts looking back.

"During my time at the studio, I've been privileged to work on a variety of projects, wearing many hats along the way, with my time on the Zombies team proving to be quite special," Blundell wrote. "Clearly, I’d be remiss if I didn’t personally thank the group that continues to make it all worth it: The Zombies community! Your passion, enthusiasm -- and frankly, your craziness -- has been a continued source of inspiration. The beauty of Zombies is that it has always been about the interaction between us as developers and one of the most passionate player communities on the planet. These are memories I will cherish for a lifetime."

Blundell first started at Treyarch back in 2006 as a producer on Call of Duty 3. Blundell's career spans across seven different Call of Duty games.

His work on the Zombies mode in the Call of Duty franchise started immediately with Call of Duty: World at War. However, Blundell's Zombies' career truly took off in November 2016 when he became the co-studio head of Treyarch.

It's unknown where Blundell is headed next and whether or not that includes game development.
