Embracer’s chief operating officer has left the company, amid a wave of restructuring and studio closures.
Announcing his departure on LinkedIn, Egil Strunke said he had “reached a checkpoint”, before adding it was time for a new project.
“Last week I left Embracer Group as COO, and it’s with mixed feelings I am parting ways [with] this global company phenomenon, rooted in Karlstad, Sweden,” Strunke wrote. “On one hand grateful for having had the chance to work with the one-of-a-kind Lars Wingefors [Embracer’s CEO] and all the other AMAZING colleagues (too many to mention!) which I will be sad to leave. On the other hand excited about the opportunities that lie ahead – starting and building my own company: Strunke Games.”
