Vince Zampella, who co-created the popular video game series Call of Duty, has died in a car crash in California, aged 55.
Zampella’s death was confirmed by Electronic Arts, which owns Respawn Entertainment, a game studio he co-founded.
The influential video game developer was travelling in a Ferrari with another person, when it crashed and caught fire on a highway in Los Angeles on Sunday.
“Died in a car crash” is not an accurate description. He killed himself and killed his passenger by driving recklessly (and might I add, far beyond his own skill level) in his million dollar toy car as if the public road was his own personal race track. Womp womp.
