Bungie's veteran CEO Pete Parsons is leaving the company


CEO Pete Parsons is leaving Bungie and Justin Truman is stepping in as studio head.

In Parsons' place, Justin Truman, a general manager on Destiny 2 and Bungie's chief development officer, is taking over as studio head. Parsons also played a role in the studio's$3.6 million acquisition by Sony, which placed Bungie at the center of plans to develop live-service games for the PlayStation — a move that hasn't really paid off so far. During a recent earnings call, Sony CFO Lin Tao said Bungie would be less independent in the future, and eventually "become part of PlayStation Studios," PC Gamer reports.
