"Halo Co-Creator Departs EA and Battlefield Franchise"

Marcus Lehto, co-creator of Halo and former director at Ridgeline Games, an EA subsidiary working on the next Battlefield game, has seemingly left the franchise and EA. His departure raises questions about the future of Battlefield, especially regarding the single player element, which Lehto was expected to revive. This comes after Ridgeline's art director also left for 343 Industries in January, signaling potential turbulence within the studio.
