Publisher defends studio closures.
It’s been open season on Activision of late, what with a string of studio closures and a steady stream of gamer-baiting soundbites from CEO/industry boogeyman Bobby Kotick.
However, the controversial publisher has insisted that consumers have got it all wrong.
Speaking in an interview with IndustryGamers, Activision Publishing CEO Eric Hirshberg explained, “I have Google, just like everybody else, and I’m of course aware of what the reputation is amongst core gamers, and there’s a narrative that I think has taken over reality to a certain extent.”
