Codemasters COO Departs Unexpectedly

Questions surround the departure of Tony Williams, who leaves the UK publisher without a public announcement.<br><strong>[Update]</strong>

Codemasters’ Chief Operating Officer Tony Williams is no longer working for the UK publisher, Edge understands.

According to a source close to the matter, Williams left the company late last week, though Codemasters has made no announcement regarding this.

Williams was once the managing director at now-defunct Bam! Entertainment. He was announced as Codemasters’ COO back in May 2005 when the publisher appointed its current CEO, Rod Cousens.

Update: Codemasters has confirmed the departure of Williams, stating that he had "stepped down" from his role as part of a "phased departure". Codemasters added that Williams will still focus on special projects for the company.
