Unity president is ‘retiring’ after developer pricing controversy
Just under a month after Unity announced a new fee structure change that led to controversy across the entire video game industry, company president and CEO John Riccitiello is “retiring” from both roles effective immediately.
Riccitiello, who previously served in the same role at Electronic Arts before leaving to join Unity in 2014, only made a brief statement in the company’s press release about the leadership transition—none of which acknowledged the massive elephant in the industry.
